bullet Cora Mae DELANEY was born on 15 Feb 1883 in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa.. (2473)(2474) (2475) Alternate date is 15 Feb 1880, according to genealogy file of Melvin Gensamer. She died on 14 Mar 1947 in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa.. (2476)(2477) (2478) She resided 713 N. Third St. - Bellwood on 14 Mar 1947 in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa.. (2479)(2480) (2481) She was buried on 17 Mar 1947 in Logan Valley Cemetery, Bellwood, Blair Co., PA.(2482) (2483) Friends were received at the family home, indicating a probable wake at her home. She was a Housewife 1897 to 1947 in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa.. (2484) She was Evangelical United Brethren lifetime in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa..(2485) The descendants chart sent by Lucy Gensamer shows Cora Mae's maiden name being HOSTLER and born in 1880. Unfortunately, the source for the name being DELANEY is not here. However, in a phone conversation with Melvin Gensamer, the name Cora Mae "Delaney" was used. I asked Melvin if it was "Delaney" or "Delancy" and he said "Delaney." At this point, the evidence leans toward Delaney as the correct name.

On July 21, 1996, at a Gensamer family reunion which took place in Tipton, Blair Co., PA, contradictions to this surname problem seem to have been answered, but it is not yet confirmed. According to an update by Melvin Gensamer and other elder members of the family, Cora Mae's mother was married twice. First to Thomas Delaney by whom there was a daughter Letitia and then to W. Scott Hostler, the chief clerk to the Blair Co. Commissioners by whom Cora Mae was born.

The Fuoss Funeral Home Records, 1914-1961, further confuses this issue. More careful research is needed in this area to sort this out.

The death certificate of Cora states Thomas Delaney was the father, but it is still possible that Thomas was her stepfather. It is suggested that the birth certificate of Cora be researched to confirm the rightful father.

June 1997: It is now the conclusion of this compiler that Cora Mae DELANEY is the niece of Letitia Huston Hostler with the common ancestor being Sarah Barto. The confusion could possible stem from the fact that there was a Thomas J. Delaney Sr. and Jr.. Parents: Thomas J. DELANEY and Emma Jane HOSTLER.

She was married to Jerry (Jeremiah) Ebbs GENSAMER on 25 Sep 1897 in Bellwood, Blair Co., Pa.. (2486)(2487) (2488)(2489) (2490)(2491) (2492) Melvin Gensamer's records show the date being 28 Sep 1897.
The Baker Mansion, Altoona, PA, historical files show a court record date of 26 Sept. 26 Sept. was possibly the date of application, not the date of marriage.
Jerry was married at age 19.
If Cora's birth and marriage dates were correct, she would have been 14 years old when married. Additional primary sources are suggested to verify this.

Copy of marriage certificate signed by the Justice of the Peace shows a wedding date of 25 Sept 1897. This date is most likely correct Children were: Charles S.
