This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/5MZ.2ACEB/473.1.1 Message Board Post: Who was Francis M. married to? Thanks

I've "rescued" an old photograph album which appears to have belonged to the JOHNSON Family of Massachusetts and includes many identified photographs. The album contains the following photographs: JOHNSON Family Photograph Album · Blanche JOHNSON, “Mother’s Sister”, Graham Photo, Taunton, 1880’s, teens or 20’s · Alice JOHNSON, Adams Studio, Franklin, MA, 1880’s, 20’s or 30’s · Blanche JOHNSON, same as photo above · Unidentified Infant, E.E. Reed Studio, Franklin, MA, 1880’s or 1890’s · Chester SMITH, W.R. Carr Studio, Franklin, MA, 1880’s, 1 year · Gertrude JOHNSON BLISS, no studio or loc, 1880’s, 20’s Based on limited research I believe that Gertrude F. JOHNSON b. Sept 1859 married Roland Hodges BLISS of Redford, MA in 1880 · Roland H. BLISS, no studio or loc, 1870’s or 1880’s, 20’s Based on limited research I believe that this is Roland Hodges BLISS b. 21 Jul 1858 at Rehoboth, MA the son of Francis Andrew BLISS and Rachel H. GOFF. The family was living in Taunton, MA during the 1880 census, with Francis age 52, Rachel age 49, Rachel's Mother, Lydia E. GOFF age 88, Roland H. age 22, Francis M. age 17, and Leonard A. age 9. All born in MA to MA born parents. · Alden MANN, Warren G. Esley Studio, Boston, MA, 1880’s or 1890’s, 20’s I believe that this is Alden T. MANN the son of William & Mary W. MANN who were living in Franklin, MA with their family during the 1880 census. William was age 60, born in NH, Mary W. was age 48, born in MA, their children, Alden T. age 18, and Mary E. age 15, both born in MA. Records indicate that Alden T. MANN's Mother was Sarah A. METCALF so I'm wondering if Mary W. is actually his step-mother. · Elsie MANN, E.E. Reed Studio, Franklin, MA, 1880’s or 1890’s, 20’s Living with the MANN Family in 1880 was Elsie M. SMITH noted as a daughter-in-law, though single and only 13 years old. I'm guessing that it was a planned marriage with Elsie living in the family in advance of her marriage, not being of age yet. Later records do indicate that Alden T. MANN Jr. married Elsie M. SMITH in 1890 at Franklin, MA. The couple had a son Alden T. MANN jr. in 1896 at Franklin, MA. · Uncle Warren BRIGHT, Hardy Studio, Boston, MA, 1880’s, 40’s or 50’s I believe that this is likely a photograph of Warren Henry BRIGHT b. 4 Aug 1841 at Canton, MA to parents Michael BRIGHT and Elvira RICHARDS. He married Mary Elizabeth PEARY on the 9th of May 1866. Warren H. & Mary E. BRIGHT were living in Franklin, MA during the 1880 census along with six children and Warren's 30 year old brother Willard S. BRIGHT. Census records indicate that Warren H. was age 38, born in MA and his wife Mary E. was age 35 born in ME. Their children included Edria A. age 13, Pusie A. age 10, Annie B. age 8, Elvira F. age 4, Henry J. age 3, and Mary E. age 11 months. The first two children were born in ME and the others in MA. Warren Henry BRIGHT d. at Franklin, MA on the 6th of May 1907. · Grandma JOHNSON, Reed Studio, Franklin, MA, 1870’s or 1880’s, 40’s or 50’s · Mary TITCOMB NYE, E.E. Reed Studio, Franklin, MA, 1880’s, 40’s Records indicate that Mary E. TITCOMB b. 1858 at Franklin, MA married Nathan Cleveland NYE in Franklin, MA on the 29th of Nov 1883. · Harry JOHNSON “Mother’s Brother” and “Grandma SMITH’s brother that drowned”, Holden Studio, Worcester, MA, 1880’s or 1890’s, teens or 20’s I believe that this is the same Harry L. JOHNSON living with his Mother, Eliza JOHNSON in the 1880 census of Medway, MA. Eliza JOHNSON was a widow, age 53, born in MA, living with three sons, Melville age 22, Wallace age 13, and Harry L. age 10, all born in MA. · Ed BRIGHT, F. Wheaton Smith Studio, Attleboro, MA, 1880’s, 30’s or 40’s · Ida BRIGHT, F. Wheaton Smith Studio, Attleboro, MA, 1880’s, 20’s or 30’s · Emma JOHNSON “Aunt”, snap shot taken at Franklin, MA, 1920’s, older woman · Grace PEARY, Metcalf Studio, West Newton, MA, early 1900’s, age 17 years I believe that Grace PEARY was born 19 April 1883 and died in June 1972 at Newton, MA · Ruth MANN, no studio or loc, 1880’s, teens or 20’s · Alice JOHNSON BRIGHT “Mother’s sister” and “Grandma SMITH’s sister”, same as 2nd photo In find Charles F. & Alice BRIGHT living in Franklin, MA during the 1880 census with records indicating that Charles F. was age 28, born in MA and his wife Alice was age 27, also born in MA to MA born parents. · Gertrude JOHNSON BLISS “Mother’s sister” and “Grandma SMITH’s sister”, same photo · Martin BERRY, postcard w/no studio or loc., 1910-20, 30’s or 40’s · Harry JOHNSON, “Mother’s brother” and “Grandma SMITH’s brother that drowned”, E.E. Reed Studio, Franklin, MA 1880’s or 1890’s, teens · Grandma JOHNSON, same as earlier photo · Unidentified Female, Wm. Pierce Studio, Brunswick, ME, 1880’s, teens or 20 ’s · Mrs. Mary MANN, “Wm. MANN King St Franklin”, K. Adams Studio, 1880’s, 50’s · Gertrude JOHNSON BLISS, C.G. Hill Studio, Ashland, MA, 1879, teens or 20’s · Blanche JOHNSON, T.H. Blair Studio, Franklin, MA, 1870’s or 1880’s, teens or 20’s · Mrs. BLISS of Taunton, no studio, 1880’s, 50’s or 60’s · Mr. BLISS of Taunton, no studio, 1880’s, 50’s or 60’s · Elmon S. PEARY, R.L. Roberts Studio, So. Canton, MA, 1870’s, 30’s The 1880 census records Elinon S. PEARY and his wife Flora I. PEARY living in Franklin, MA, Elinon is age 31 born in ME and his wife Flora I. is age 26, born in MA. · Flora JOHNSON PEARY, T.H.

M. Rand Studio, Bridgewater, MA, 1880’s, 20’s Melissa C. GAY was a Teacher living in the home of the BALLOU Family in Franklin, MA during the 1880 census. Melissa was 29 years old, born in MA to parents born in ME and MA respectively. · Flora JOHNSON PEARY SMITH, same as Mother JOHNSON PEARY photo above · “The Old House – Vira & Frank RIBERO” note on back addressed to Grace, snap shot 1920’s · “Flikins” Grandma SMITH’s cat at 17 Crescent St, snap shot probably 1930’s I'm hoping to locate someone from these families so that this wonderful old treasure can be returned to the care of family.

I have 109 pages single spaced outline of descendents of John Goff. Riley Phelps and Elizabeth Denham are buried in Goff Cem. Just outside of Burnside. They are the parents of Dolly Phelps Brown Taylor Meece. Riley's parents were Leonard Phelps and Polly Goff. (This is my connection to the Goff family). I would imagine since your families are from Burnside that you are connect somehow. I will be working on these families at the library soon. I need more information from you to connect them in.
