Notes:

Alice's nieces, Mable and Belle STRONG, were living with Royal and Alice at the time of the 1910 census. Glenn was shown as widowed, but neither of his young daughters were listed in the home. Perhaps they were living with their maternal grandparents?

When the 1920 Mahoning, Ohio census was taken, Royal was widowed, and living only with his daughter, Alberta CUTTING, age 13 and 11/12, and a housekeeper from Pennsylvania. Alberta was the adopted daughter of Royal and Alice, the daughter of Alice's brother, Frederick A. Strong, and named after her mother, Alberta Osborne Strong.

Obituary found in the Youngstown Vindicator, Monday, 10/28/1912, page 3

Mrs. Alice M. Cutting

Mrs. Alice M. Cuting, wife of Royal S. Cutting, dies at the family residence, 1015 Mount Pleasant street, Sunday at 10 p.m. from pneumonia. She had been ill only a few days and coming suddenly as it did her death was a very severe shock to the family and friends.

Mrs. Cutting whose maiden name was Alice Strong, was born in 1865 in Bristolville where she grew up and was married twenty-eight years ago to Royal Cutting, who survives with the following children: Glen Cutting, Mrs. James Shipp, and Alberta Cutting, all of Youngstown. There are also three brothers, Frank Strong, Chardon, O., Charles Strong, Dorset, O., and Fred Strong of Gary, Ind.

Mrs. Cutting had resided in Youngstown for a number of years and was member of the Epworth M. E. church. During her residence here she had gained the friendship of many people who highly respected her and regret her passing, and who sympathize with the family in the loss of a devoted wife and mother.

Funeral services will be held in the residence Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock. Thursday at 9:30 a.m. the remains will be taken to Bristolville where services will be held from the M. E. church at 12 o'clock. Interment will be made in the Bristolville cemetery. (Courtesy of WIlliam Billig).
