1634. Charles Trott SISSON (Freeborn , Freeborn , Gideon , George , George , Richard ) was born 1833 in Elmira, Chemung Co., New York. He died in Waco, Mc Lennan Co., Texas.

I did not note in what later issue the replacement appeared. Charles Trott Sisson is listed as a clerk in the LaSalle County, IL, 1850 census. He was a first lieutenant in the Nora Home guards at the outbreak of the Civil War. He is listed with Van Dusen and Sisson in 1869 in Chicago. His residence was 20 S. Ann. He is listed as "traveling sales" with Root and Cady in 1870, with various addresses and businesses between 1884 and 1894. In 1871 "the family" (Charles and his wife Stella? one or more of their children?) moved to Austin, TX, where Charles was a music dealer.
