Greene county, the former born November 27, 1812, and the latter April 20, 1818. The grandparents were Gilbert

are now living: Sarah, wife of W. Mandeville, wholesale boot and shoe dealer, of Rochester; Lucy, wife of C. F.
Sweezey, of Marion; Ella, wife Alderman M. B. Adams, of Rochester; and Clara, who resides on the homestead. Our
subject was reared on the farm, educated at Walworth Academy and Business Institute, of Rochester, and in 1870
married Clara Billings, daughter of Benjamin and Susan Billings, of Macedon. They have two daughters, Florence
and Edith. Mr. Yeomans makes a specialty of fruit growing and is a dealer in land fertilizers. He is a charter
member of Walworth Grange, of which his wife is a member also.
