Additional Facts:

Franklin C. Ormsby was born in 1905 and was the youngest child of Frank A. Ormsby to reach maturity. Like all of his brothers and sisters he was born in Rosenhayn, New Jersey and moved to Williamstown, New Jersey when he was about five years of age. As a young man Franklin (better known as "Frank") worked at various jobs in the southern New Jersey area. He worked for the old Camden Forge Company, the Camden Electric Company and the Vineland Electric Company. Finally he joined the Atlantic City Electric Company and worked there the rest of his life, ultimately reaching a supervisory position. Frank married Dorothy Gay about 1923. Although Dorothy was born in Brooklyn, New York, she lived in the Fries Mill section of Franklin Township (Gloucester County) when she and Frank wed. About 1930 Frank and Dorothy moved to Vineland, New Jersey, where they lived for about four years while Frank was employed by the Vineland Electric Company. About 1935 they moved to Salem, New Jersey when Frank became employed by the Atlantic City Electric Company. Frank spent the rest of his life as a resident of Salem. Frank and Dorothy raised two children: Ralph and Vivian. Frank died in 1968 and is buried in the Lawnside Cemetary, just outside Woodstown, New Jersey. At the time this was written Dorothy is still living in Salem, New Jersey.
