Note

Per Alvin Corners in 5/12/2000 letter:
"Great Granddad Corners came over in 1865...Also, I was told his name was Corner and when his kids got big they thought it would sound better with an "s" on it. It's been Corners ever since, "as posted by Wendy Campbell on her wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com site.
