SPENCER, NEW YORK - SOUTH HILL

In 1915 Frank and Helmi Ashlund and children Aili, Andrew, Frank and Mary moved to a farm on South Hill. They came from Nanty Glo, Pennsylvania, where Mr. Ashlund had worked as a miner in the soft coal mines. Irene, born in 1915, was probably the first child of Finnish parentage to be born in Spencer. Later the family was blessed with three more daughters, Betty and twins Esther and Elma
