Pennsylvania: 1889 – The “Five Brothers” Photograph McA-1889-Five-Brothers.jpg |
|
|
|
See “Family Reunion” / Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, MFHN v.XII n.4 Oct. 2004 pg. 2004-31 |
|
|
|
The five brothers in the photograph, and their ages in 1889, are |
|
“William L. (76), of Belleview; George (74), of Clover township; Samuel (77), of |
|
Franklin, Venango County; Louis (67), of Eastern Kansas, and Sylvester (61), of Knox.” |
|
Copies of the photograph came from both Linda Stitt, in Pennsylvania, and from Judith Gaby, |
|
in New Mexico, both descendents of Sylvester J. ‘Squire’ McAninch. |
|
|
|
Harold S. McAninch, who currently lives in Sun City, Arizona, wrote to say that he also has |
|
“a copy of the five elderly men that my grand parents had. I did not know who any of them were |
|
and I didn't know when it was taken so that was good news.” Harold is a descendent of |
|
George A. McAninch (1815-1899; age 74 in 1889), so, we know that copies of the 1889 |
|
photograph have been handed down by the descendents of at least two different brothers. |
