Castles from NY to CA via IL and ID

Elliott Castle married Eliza Blower. They were in Williamstown, Oswego Co., NY in 1860. They had a son named Spencer B. Castle who eventually married Virginia Whitaker. Spencer and Virginia were in Carlinville, Macoupin Co., IL in 1880. In 1900, they were in Pocatello, Bannock Co., ID with son Harry who was 20 years old. Spencer was a train operator in Pocatello in 1910, and in 1920 was a train dispatcher for an electric RR in Salt Lake City. He was, by this time, married to another woman named Anna born in Sweden. Spencer's son,Harry Castle, meanwhile was a tel. operator in Nampa, Canyon Co., ID in 1900. In 1910, he was a clerk in a RR office in Pocatello, and married to Harriett Watts. Harry and Harriett had a son named Charles, age 2. In 1920, Harry was in Los Angeles, Venice Twp., CA as a Time Keeper for the RR. By this time Harry and Harriett had another child, a daughter named Elizabeth, and Harry's mother in law, Mary Turner, age 78 was with them. Would like to find a living descendant of these folks as I am a descendant of Eliza (Blower) Castle's sister, Elizabeth. I have a picture of Eliza Castle to share with those who are interested. I also have pictures of each of her siblings: James, John, Elizabeth, Maria. Maria and Eliza were twins, and these Blower children migrated from England in 1851. Their father was William Blower who was with Elliott and Eliza Castle in 1860 as a blind man, age 52.
