I am looking for information about my grandfather, Joseph W. BORDEN. His name is listed in the 1920 census for Green Township in Chenango County. He was 73 years old in 1920 and was working for wages as a watch repairer. My father, Parker G. BORDEN, his only son, was living in California when Joseph died a few years later. Parker died in 1947 when I was only 15 and I never learned anything about my Grandfather except his name.

I would greatly appreciate any infomation that you may have.
