The elderly man with the beard in the third row is Absolom Snider. The white haired lady slightly behind him to his right, your left, is Effie Ellen Trovinger Snider, his wife. Directly behind Effie is their son in law, Weston Stanley Laughbaum. to his right is Ida Jane snider Laughbaum with their Daughter, Martha Ellen Laughbaum Hoover on her lap. They had a farm west of Galion and I think her parents lived with them for awhile. Absolom was a preacher and at one time preached at the Evangelical United Brethren Church in Galion. This would have been after the turn of the century. In the early part of the century, the church was on East Walnut Street in Galion. When in burned down in the early '50's, it was relocated to Cherry St. Now it is a United Methodist Church.I love this picture and wish I knew more about it. I recognize Aaron and Thurston, but the girls and Elias are harder for me to find. Weston and Ida were my grandparents, although I never knew her. My Dad was not in the picture because he was 8 years younger than Martha Ellen. I also do not see Nancy Pfeiffer Laughbaum. I have several pictures of her so I know what she looks like, I just don't see her. Perhaps you can help with identifying those I don' t see.
thank you! I

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth. So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her. For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces.

My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.
