Stories
Charles Sr.'s first marriage, and the half-brother it gave Hope
1912 to 1922
Before Charles Arthur Arnholm Sr. married Merena Fisher, he was married to Nellie Phileman Lascor of Proctor, Vermont. They married in 1912. Their son Charles Jr. was born in 1917. Nellie died in 1920 at age 27, leaving a two-year-old. She is buried at Saint Monica Cemetery in Barre, the Catholic cemetery, separately from her husband's later family plot in Hope Cemetery. Her parents were Stephen Lascor and Pamelia Delia (Preedom) Lascor of Proctor. Two years after Nellie's death, Charles Sr. married Merena Fisher. Hope, Merena Jr., Bernard, and Ronald are the children of that second marriage. Charles Jr. is therefore Hope's half-brother, and he was raised inside the second family alongside his four half-siblings.
