NOTE - The birth years for both Frank and Anna are apparently incorrect. Frank was born in 1857 and Anna in 1858. Also Anna reports that she delivered 4 children and all 4 were living. She does not mention Clyde who was born and died in 1893. I believe that she is including Franklin's son from his first marriage when she comes up with a total of 4 children.
