NOTES: William and Alonzo BABBITT and their father James, were employed by the
United States Laboratory, in Albany, NY., when a young man, "Abram TOMS" was
said to have "left his station, withholding information" that there was a fire
and the building exploded, killing William and Alonzo. A poem was written by the
poet, Silas BALLOU and this poem was read at the boys funerals, by their father.
It is felt that the boys were buried in unmarked graves, at the Laboratory,
although this is not proven. A copy of the very heart wrenching poem is in my
files. James BABBITT was a Universalist, a traveling Preacher. According to the
BABBITT family history book, "Warren BABBITT removed South." For more
