Description

Benjamin Franklin Huffman Sr. family home near Nineveh, in Morris Township, Greene County, Pennsylvania. [boy on horse] Unidentified *[man standing] Unidentified [man seated-center] Benjamin Franklin Huffman Sr. [1827-1909] [woman] Nancy Ann Huffman [1854-1939] - daughter of Benjamin Franklin Huffman Sr. and Mary Penn *The man may be Benjamin's son, John, with whom Benjamin and his daughter, Nancy, were living in the 1900 Census of Morris Township, Greene County, Pennsylvania. NOTE: At the time this photograph was scanned in 2005, caption information indicated that the people pictured may be from the Peter Fry family. However, as the photograph was analyzed, concerns were raised regarding that identification. After consultation with Ed Reed who shared the image and owns the original, genealogical research, and photograph comparisons it has been determined that the Fry caption was an error. Benjamin Franklin Huffman Sr.'s identity was confirmed by his picture (item # REEE-AN003-0001) in this same collection. Ed Reed also confirmed the identity of Nancy Huffman, Benjamin's daughter, based on family interviews and review. Research is ongoing and we will continue to update the description as more facts are proven or denied. Original, no photographer listed.
