Notes:

Elbert has always been known to us as "Al". He was always an outgoing boy in school and very active with his friends. He was in Scouts and spent all his summers at Boy Scout Camps, with his father. Al spent a lot of vacations with his grandmother in Mass. He loved spending time with his grandmother Damon "Grammy" and his Uncle Gerald, who was about his same age, running around Williamstown, Mass. He entered the United States Air Force when he was 19 and was trained as a Medic. Al was stationed at Charleston, S.C., but spent a lot of time flying overseas to such places as Brazil, Japan, Vietnam, Surinam and Dominican Republic. These flights were primarily to treat Military personnel in isolated areas. He met his wife Sharon during his second year in the service. They were married one year later and then moved back to York Pa. when he was discharged as a Sgt. Al always took care of the family with medical advice and help to all.
He then went to work at a Ford dealership, as a Credit manager for a number of years. He then went into work as a general contractor, and developed low income housing in the City of York, PA. After a number of years being self employed he has turned his contracting skills into a full time position as General director of housing at an elderly housing project in the City of York, PA where he has become a trusted associate that the elderly all appreciate his presence. Al raised his boys with the same caring attention he put into his medical career and his scouting career, always looking to help others, and set an example for them. He has been a family member that we all look to for advice and leadership. He continued to show his caring attitude by helping his parents as they have retired and needed constant attention.
Al has been the guiding force of this genealogy study of the Damon family. He has a sincere desire to teach his children and their children the true meaning of family and with this the hopes of the future by presenting a history of the past.

Notes:

Elbert was the youngest child of Bradbury and Viola. He moved from Buckfield with his mother when she left with a traveling salesman, Joe Bowles. They moved to Boston where she married Charles W. Reed in 1906. He never moved back to Maine. He moved to North Adams, Mass to become a policeman and there meet Pearl VanArman and had two sons. He later became a 3rd class engineer at Sprauge Electric. At the time of his death he was working as a maintenance man there and during the winter he forgot his insulin and got caught at work during a snow storm and went into insulin shock and never recovered.
As we remember him he was a very happy person who liked to have a drink occasionally and he was very handy around the house. He built a tool shed and would spend a lot of time there. He used the paving stones form the North Adams streets when they pulled them up for the foundation and a retaining wall. He also started building a second larger house which he never completed. This building was to be partially used as a guest house.
At a family reunion in 1996 in Buckfield he was remembered, because he went back several times to visit and was a very friendly person who had a real wild side about him. He took Laura Damon back with him to visit in North Adams once and she rode back in the rumble seat and remembers it as a great trip of her youth. Laura also remembers Pearl and his two sons and the great summer vacation she had with them.
Once he was married, he never went back to visit his mother, however he did make a few trip's to Buckfield to visit friends and relatives there.

Notes:

1870 Census: listed as "Joseph B."

Tombstone in Buckfield marked only "Father and Mother", next to Wilson.

Bradbury was a very fun loving guy with a good sense of humor. He was known for his practical jokes on family and friends. He was a small man in stature only measuring 5'3''. He worked his dad's farm and had a farm of his own which Wilson took over later. He raised cattle for both milk and beef. Milk went to the local dairy. Beef was shipped to Boston, along with apples from his orchard. His main cash crop was corn that he sold to a local cannery. He sold pigeons to sell in Boston which he sold as fresh "quail". He worked in town as a butcher, in the winter and was suspected to sell deer meat as veal.
When the train went into the creek it was never set up again for freight. This changed a lot of commerce trading for Buckfield. Getting products to Boston now was impossible. Cash was tight and Bradbury turned to running Rum from Canada threw Smuggler's Notch in Vermont. This was across a lake and Bradbury would keep most of the rum on the outside of the boat connected by ice thongs and if chased would squeeze the top and the rum would drop to the bottom of the lake making it easier for him to get away or at least have nothing to get caught with. He sold his rum to a local pharmacy who had a run in with the town. One Sunday morning the preacher warned his Parrish that anyone who drank could not cross the threshold of his church next Sunday. Later that week the church and the school next to it were burned down. No one was arrested but the pharmacist left town never to return and his accomplice was never revealed. Local gossip has it that Brad was part of this incident. He spent a lot of time with a man named Larry Fisher and they were partners in the rum running.
As time went on his wife Viola left him; traveling with a salesman named Joe Bowles; to Boston. He sold pots and pans and known to locals as a Jew boy. She went to Boston with him and divorced Bradbury and later married Walter Reed. She took Elbert her youngest son with her never to return to Buckfield except to be buried with Bradbury.
Bradbury was a hunter and a fisherman as most men in those days were. He was a heavy drinker and a chain smoker. When he died they gave him nicotine pills so he would lay still and die quitely. He lived his last days living with his son Wilson.
John Linwood Damon Jr. told Brian Edward Damon these stories as he had first hand knowledge of his uncle and talked about him with a smile and a chuckle. He ended each story with the disclaimer " or so I heard".

Bradbury married Gammon, Viola Abbie on 18 Nov 1883 in Canton, Oxford Co., ME. Viola (daughter of Gammon, Charles Harrison and Sturtevant, Mary B.) was born on 08 Oct 1867 in Buckfield, Oxford Co., ME; died on 01 Oct 1918 in Brockton, Plymouth Co., MA; was buried in Buckfield, Oxford Co., ME.

Notes:

As time went on his wife Viola left Bradbury;traveling with a salesman named Joe Boulos to Boston. He sold pots and pans and known to locals as a Jew boy. She went to Boston with him and divorced Bradbury and later married Walter Reed. It is thought that her relationship with Joe Bowles was one of convenience; simply a ride to Boston. She took Elbert her youngest son with her never to return to Buckfield except to be buried with Bradbury.

On the 1910 Census, it states that Viola had given birth to 10 children, of which 7 are living. We only have accounted for 8 births.

From local historian Ruthann N. LaBombard:
"About the store, It was located on Station Hill in Ellenburg Depot, Ny. I contacted Leah VanArman Drown and she verified the location. George was her grandfather. He would take her to the feed store and one day he forgot her because she was playing off somewhere, He went home without her and she had to call the operator and ask her to call him at the farm to come and get her. At that time the telephone system was like that."
