Mystery Photos
Can you identify the people in these photos?
“I found in my family's old albums the attached photo.
There is no identifying info on the back, and I haven't found anyone
who can tell me who these people are. Because all of my family lines
lived in Muhlenberg, I think these folks could well have lived there,
too…If they are not related to me, I'd be glad to pass the original photo along to someone who would treasure it.” - Fran

Tintype. Coloration of the ring on her hand suggests this is a wedding photo. Could this be Nannie Pace Lile?

Undated photo. “Nellie Fentress” written underneath. It is unclear who this individual is - “Nellie” was a common nickname for Ellen. It is possible that this is Ellen Fentress, daughter of Lancaster D. Fentress, and wife of James L. Watkins? Or is she Eliza E. Kittinger Fentress, wife of John V. Fentress? Or another Fentress daughter, wife, or in-law? If you have information, please email Pat. Thank you.
