I've "rescued" two old photographs belonging to the GRAY - WHEELER and LOOMIS - WHEELER Families of New York. The first is a photograph of Lucina GRAY WHEELER which was taken at the A. W. Warner Studio in Greene, NY. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Lucina appearing to be in her 30's or 40's at the time it was taken. The second photograph is identified as William Guernsey LOOMIS, son of Jeremiah LOOMIS and Maria WHEELER. This photograph was taken at the Osborn Studio in Binghamton, NY likely sometime in the 1880's with William appearing to be about 10 years old at the time. In addition to these photographs I've also obtained from the same source a photograph of Marius Welch WHEELER who I believe is a brother to Lucina GRAY WHEELER'S husband William D. WHEELER. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information: Lucina GRAY was b. 14 Dec 1842 in Greene, NY to parents Samuel J. GRAY (b. 28 Oct 1813 in Greene, NY) and Eliza SMITH (b. about 1817 in Greene, NY). Lucina was one of 6 GRAY children including, Henry S.; S. D.; Charles D.; Lucina; George W.; and Jane GRAY all born between 1837 and 1852 in Greene, NY. Lucina married Will WHEELER (b. about 1838 and living in Greene, NY at the time of their marriage) about 1862 in Chenango Co. NY. Together the couple had two children, Jerry WHEELER and Emily WHEELER born between 1864 and 1866 in Chenango Co. NY. William Guernsey LOOMIS was b. 13 Jun 1879 in Oxford, NY to parents Jeremiah T. LOOMIS (b. 10 Dec 1836 in Oxford, NY) and Maria Sally WHEELER (b. 22 Jul 1839 in Greene, NY). William was one of 10 children born to this couple including, Elvira M.; Margaret Ross; Wheaton D.; Charlotte W.; Kathryn M.; George W.; Frank C.; William Guernsey; one unknown child; and Myrtle L. LOOMIS all born between 1861 and 1882 in Oxford, NY. William married Belva Lockwood MANZER (b. 2 Apr 1884 in McDonough, NY) on 29 Jun 1904 in Greene, NY and together they had 4 children including, Millard Edward; Alberta; Grace Elizabeth; and Ruth Maria LOOMIS two born in Fargo, ND in 1910 and 1919. William Guernsey LOOMIS died on 27 Feb 1961 in Seattle, WA. Census records provide the following information: 1860 census of Greene, NY: Samuel J. GRAY, age 47, a Farmer, born NY Eliza GRAY, age 47, born NY Stephen D. GRAY, age 21, a Farm Laborer, born NY Charles D. GRAY, age 19, born NY Lucinda A. GRAY, age 17, born NY George W.

WHEELER, dau, age 23, born Nov 1876, married 8 years, born NY, a Dressmaker Henry B. WHEELER, son, age 18, born Jun 1881, born NY, at School I am hoping to locate someone from the family so that these wonderful old photographs can be returned to their rightful place within the family.

My 2nd great-grandmother was Lydia Jane (Jennie) WHEELER LORD (b. 9 Sep 1852). Her father was John WHEELER mother unknown. He had a brother, Wayne WHEELER. Jennie WHEELER was originally from Augusta, Oneida County where she married my 2nd great-grandfather, Francis Delay Lord, on 23 Dec 1869, but ended up in Pharsalia, where my great-grandfather, George Francis LORD was born 19 Nov 1870. Any help I can get tracking my WHEELER's back will be gratefully accepted.
