PhotographScope and Content
This photograph collection primarily consists of the Hall and Williams family and their extended relations of Chester County, Pennsylvania. At some point in the 20th century the family and photographs extend to Meadville of Crawford County, Pennsylvania.Context
Photograph of Elwood Glisson (1855-1938, right), Amy Ida Glisson (1857-1944, left), and Abbie Gilbert (1883-1968, middle) labeled "at their home 333 Dean St West Chester Pa." Abbie was Amy's first cousin once removed; her mother Lydia J. Cox Gilbert (1859-1942) shares common grandparents with Amy: Jesse Williams (1794-1842) and Sarah Hoopes Williams (1791-1839). The Glissons lived in West Chester as of the 1910-1930 censuses. They lived on the same street as Amy's brother William Williams Jr. (1860-1935) (see: 2023.006.071 "William and Elizabeth Williams and Norman Vernon at their home, 341 Dean Street. West Chester PA").Collection
