Description

Fannie Johnson holding Mary Inghram (Denny) Weaver [1891-1972]. Fannie's identity is noted on the back of the image as, "Fannie Johnson, Homes Jackson's aunt." Lewis Homer Jackson [1894-1966] was the son of Lewis Edward Jackson and Rebecca Jane Workman. Homer's wife was Edna (Johnson) Jackson [1898-1958], daughter of William Johnson and Elizabeth McGruder. Fannie's identity is yet to be determined within this family tree, but it is possible that she was actually the aunt of Homer's wife, rather than Homer himself, through her Johnson lineage. Mary Inghram (Denny) Weaver [1891-1972] was the wife of Charles Arthur Weaver, and daughter of Eleazer Luse Denny and Louise Inghram. Original, professional photograph from Hawkins, Caldwell's Building, Washington, Pa.
