This album plus two others were destined for the dumpster, but as a genealogist, I simply couldn't let that happen without attempting to find descendants to share them with!
The photos in this album are from late 1850s to early 1900s, mostly from a photography studio in Xenia, Greene Co Ohio, a couple from Dayton, Ohio; two from Manchester, Iowa, and a few from Los Angeles. All are from the same Peterson family. There are over 30 photos, mostly unidentified.
I believe I have located a descendant on Ancestry.com who has posted photos of JOHN NASH & ELIZABETH ANN PETERSON, below, and have attempted to contact them. If anyone has any further information, please contact me.
Jacob L Peterson of Xenia, Greene Co Ohio (lithograph, signed) |
Elizabeth Ann (Peterson) Nash & husband John Nash |
NOTE 5/2/17: I'm happy to report that this album was reunited with a descendant!
Have a great day!
Have a great day!
