    3. I have discovered a cache of Page tintypes (in my own basement, no less) that are the first real clues I have on my husband's Page line. They are labeled with names only, no dates or places, but I suspect all three generations were in Kentucky, and at least the most recent was definitely in Woodville and Kevil, McCracken Co, KY. Does anyone recognize these names? Starting from most recent: MINNIE LOUISE PAGE, b. KY (probably McCracken Co.)19 Dec., 1871 m. SHELBY LOVELL DALE (his father, RUEBEN DALE was also living in the area near Woodville when they were married) , 12 March, 1893, at the home of Mr. Joe Hobbs near Woodville, KY. She had about 12 younger siblings, but the only names I have are Will (who died at age 44 in Woodville of typhoid fever) and Russell. Minnie's parents: JAMES WILLIAM PAGE (prob. b. about 1858 ) and HEPSEY LUCINDA TAYLOR. Hepsy Lucinda had a twin sister, MARGARET CLARINDA PAGE MORGAN. Another portrait is of IRENE BERTHA PAGE TREVOLLA(?)--may be James William's sister. There are also tintypes of two young boys, WILLIAM ROBERT PAGE and CHARLES WALTER PAGE, J.W.'s brothers, perhaps? James William Page's parents (b. abt. 1830-35): WILLIAM JOHNSON PAGE and LOUISA JANE SANDERS. Does anyone know how late tintypes were made? All of these portraits are on tin except one of James William and Hepsy Lucinda as young adults. That one is a photograph on cardboard. Karen Dale [email protected]
