Family of Frederick Robert GILLINDER and Margaret Florence VEAZIE

Frederick Robert GILLINDER b. 1846 Dec 71381 at England645. d. 1906 Mar 22277 at 2232 N 13th, Ward 37, Philadelphia, PA2277. bd. North Laurel Hill Cem., Philadelphia, PA2277.
Margaret Florence VEAZIE b. 1858 Mar 12275 at Boston, MA2275. d. 1935 May 235467 at 105 W Allen's Lane, Philadelphia, PA5467. bd. Laurel Hill Cem., Philadelphia, PA5467.

Married2275 1885~1381.

Margaret's 1921 passport application mentions her birthdate, father's name (George Veazie) and husband's name. In 1900, Fred and Margaret had been married 15 years.

In 1860, "Frederic" is living with his parents and 5 siblings. By 1870, he was a glass manufacturer with a real estate value of $10000, was married2279 to Harriet (---) and had a daughter Laura. In 1880, he, Harriet and Laura were still living in Philadelphia. By 1900, Fred had remarried to Margaret and is listed1381 as immigrating in 1856. In an 1880 passport application645 for "F R Gillinder" of Philadelphia, he gives his birthplace as England and birthdate of 7 Dec 1847. His death certificate, 1906, lists his age as 60. From various records, it appears that a birthyear of 1846, as listed1381 in the 1900 census, is probably most accurate. Fred was a successful glass manufacturer.

[from the internet] Originally operated under the name of Franklin Flint Works, Gillinder & Sons was founded in 1861 by William Gillinder. When sons James and Frederic joined the company in 1867, the name was changed to Gillinder & Sons. They built an exhibition glass factory on the ground of the American Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. In the early 1900s, the company moved to Port Jervis, NY, and today (2012) is known as Gillinder Glass. For those interested, visit www.gillinderglass.com.

Margaret's middle name is listed on her 1921 passport 2275 application. That application states her birthplace, birthdate and the name of her father, "George L Veazie." Included with that application is a letter written by Margaret, Lansdale, PA, Oct 26, 1921, on the letterhead of Gillinder & Sons, of whom her husband is listed as President. Her interest in genealogy, besides her DAR lineage2276 entry, is demonstrated in that letter by the discussion of her family history, mentioning that her ancestors landed in Salem, MA, in 1630 and settled in Boston and Braintree. She also mentions she is a DAR going back to "Elija Veazie Jr." She also discusses her childhood, mentioning that she left Boston when she was 5 years of age; her grandparents were dead at the time of her birth, except one grandfather who died when she was 3 or 4 years old; and (in 1921) she has no blood relatives that she knows of. She also mentions her husband, Frederick R Gillinder, deceased "the past fifteen years."

Child 2. Frederick Jr

In 1920, Frederick Jr, living with his mother, was working at a butcher store.

Frederick died5466 in Norristown, PA, Dec 23, 1957. He was the president of the Allentown (PA) Roofing and Sheet Metal Co., which he founded about 1936. Though he was former resident of Allentown, he lived most of his life in Lansdale, PA.

Surviving Frederick were his wife, the former Mabel Adair; son Dr F Robert Gillinder, Lansdale; daughter Elizabeth, wife of James Daltry, Media; grandchildren; and Mrs Florence Pickett of Cape May, NJ.
