That was before my first pc, and I was just getting started with family history then, so the names didn't mean as much yet, as they do now that I know who they are.(Well, most of them anyway.) Nor was I nearly as organized as I still would like to be. ha. Hence, I put them in a "safe place" and so thereby hid them from myself. So, in case any cousins out there would also like to be distracted from their holiday chores ;-)...here's a list, with some info to tie them together. BARBER This is one I do not know. Ella BARBER, dau of Julia SHEBLE BARBER, taken at about age 20. Photo made at Garnes and Co, 206 Federal St., Camden,N.J. and she is identified as a cousin of Emily B. KIGER- Kate's mother. Not much detail in this one, mainly a face forward portrait, though she has a high collar and a large bow worn on the side. Another photo from same gallery - Julia BARBER. So, appears to be the mother of the first one. I know Barbers married my "other" direct blood line PATTERSONS, who then married ROBINSONS and they into the KIGERS, so perhaps that connection will eventually lead me to these ladies' identifies in the line. BECHTEL Henry BECHTEL, son of James BECHTEL, who was brother to my great great grandmother Emily BENDER BECHTEL(mother of Kate) who married Elwood KIGER and lived at Course's Landing, Salem county. According to my grandmother's notes, (Mariah JAQUETTE WEBBER LAYTON 1899-2001) this Henry worked as a machinist in Salem and married a local gal, but she didn't recall his wife's name at at the time she wrote to me. Interesting, since the photo bears the mark of J(?)elby or Selby Studios in Baltimore, Md.. BENDER H. K. BENDER of East Bangor, Pennsylvania. Not entirely sure of the relationship, but BECHTELS and BENDERS married, hence my great great grandmother's name....Emily BENDER BECHTEL KIGER. BUTTERWORTH Another young woman, Gertie BUTTERWORTH, identified as a cousin on the BECHTEL side of the family. My grandmother noted a resemblance between her own grandmother WEBBER and this one. ENGLISH "Aunt Mag" (Margaret) WEBBER ENGLISH (1829-1914)and "Uncle Enos" ENGLISH of Salem, NJ. Sitting in chairs outside of a great old farmhouse. Reminds me of my grandfather's place in Sharptown,on the old "Robinson farm" the old shutters, windows and porch rails, etc.. Enos appears older than her in this, though I have no dates on him. Margaret a dau of Henry WEBBER and Rebecca PETERSON h/w , who are bu. in the Presbyterian Church yard in Salem. Rev. Lemuel WEBBER was one of her brothers. KLEMM John KLEMM, Sr, taken at the F. Gutekunstle Co in Philadelphia. Identified only as a cousin on the BECHTEL side. Ok, finally some people I know more about. LOPER William LOPER ( as a man of abt 50) who married Caroline KIGER in 1868 at the LPN Me. Church in Salem county, though they lived later in Stow Creek, then Bridgeton, Cumberland county, NJ. Also several photos of their son Edward A, his first wife Flora BUCKAOO and his sister Martha ( Mattie) LOPER along with her husband Albert CORNWALL or CORNWELL, all of Bridgeton. Caroline KIGER LOPER was a sister to my great great grandfather Elwood Kiger, he being the father of Kate KIGER WEBBER PATTERSON Ella JAQUETT PATTERSON (1852-1938) from Mannington Twp, NJ, a dau of Lott JAQUETT and Eliza Ann PETERSON, h/w) taken in Los Angeles, California in her later years. Ella married William PATTERSON who was a cattle dealer according to my grandmother's note...and quite well to do. Ella was also sister in law via both her sisters - Eliza Ann and then Mariah JAAQUETT WEBBER, first and second wives of Rev. Lemuel WEBBER who died out in California. So technically we are talking ggrandmother Kate's husband's side of the family...but it really doesn't matter since the WEBBERS and KIGERS married in earlier generations, so my ggrandparents already second cousin. ahem. "Uncle Willie" or William PATTERSON, taken in Los Angeles. Father of Merritt, husband of Ella JAQUETT PATTERSON. I am not certain if he was a Salem county PATTERSON...but inclined to believe so, since the families so intertwined here in earlier generations. I should track down their marriage to check. "Our little cousin" Merritt JAQUETT PATTERSON, 6 years old - son of William and Ella Jaquette Patterson. Margaret PATTERSON EARNHART- not positively identified as a dau of William and Ella, but photo also taken in Los Angeles. My grandmother stated she didn't live with her husband and suffered from alchoholism. Lulu PATTERSON- aged 2 years old. Also taken in Los Angeles. Probably a dau of same couple, but not positive. WEBBER Joseph WEBBER (1836-1915) who married Anna DICK they of Sharptown, Salem County - he an uncle to Harry O. Webber - Kate's husband. Anna DICK WEBBER taken in abt. 1920? She appeared to be about 45 years old. "Aunt Annie", wife of Joseph above. Harry WEBBER,(b. Abt 1864) son of Thomas WEBBER (1821-1876) and Louisa GREEN. He was called "Delaware Harry", I suppose to keep him straight from his cousin, my great grandfather Harry O. WEBBER at Course's landing. So funny, as my "cousin" Bob Howey had just tracked this Thomas Webber in Delaware census records recently. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known who this one was. Ok, enough family trivial pursuit for one afternoon. Hope sometime I can better understand the connection to some of these names. If you have a connection, let me know and we'll see about making copies. Val
