Notes

The Esther Ruth Hart Series most likely passed from Miles Leonidas Hart [1868-1950] and his wife, Lulu Hewitt [1878-1962], to their daughter, Esther Ruth Hart [1913-2008], whose friends donated the photographs to the Cornerstone Genealogical Society (144 E. Greene St., PO Box 547; Waynesburg, Pennsylvania 15370) in 2008. SOURCE CITATION: George Kelley; circa 1864-1865, image by J. H. Rogers, Photographer, In the Neck, Brownsville, Pa.; item no.
