Photo found in antique shop in San Jose, CA. These are NOT my family members, nor do I have more information. Back of photo, hand-written, states: "Grandma Barnes, 84 years, 7 months and 21 days...Billy Wade Cowan, 1 year, 4 months and 23 days.." Found the family in the 1930 US Census in Cedar Township, Cedar, Missouri. In household: Clarence W. Cowan, 28, wife Lila A., 25, & son Billy W., 2 11/12; also in household: Ada Barnes, 86, widowed and born in Missouri & Wade M. Cowan, age 61(widow) with daughter Eula and son Henry H.(both in their 30's). Apparently, in 1930 there were 4 generations of Cowans living together.

This is my uncle Billy Wade Cowan. My Grandfather and Grandmother were Clarence Wade Cowan and Lila Alice Stamps Cowan. How can I get this picture with the hand-written notes on the back? My mother is Norma Lou Cowan Jackson born 01/08/1939 after this photo was taken. Clarence Cowan was born 09/01/1901 and Lila Alice Stamps Cowan was born 01/28/1905.

In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation designating Mother's Day, the second Sunday in May, as a national holiday to honor mothers. Anna Jarvis had championed a Mother's Day for years but Congress had joked a few years earlier that then they would have to proclaim a "Mother-in-law's Day" as well. The President who championed a woman's right to vote also created a day in their honor.

My life-time love of geneology and old photos led to the concept of Ancientfaces back in 1999....through the site I have made contact with previously unknown cousins in Australia, Tasmania, England, Scotland and various states in the US, broadening and enriching my family stories, photos and family relationships. The names I am researching resided in and/or settled the following areas: South Wales; Scotland; Northern Ireland; Normandy; Germany, Belgium & the Netherlands; Virginia; West Virginia, Kentucky, Kansas, Idaho and Washington state; first wave of settlers in the Hudson River & Mohawk River Vallies; founding fathers of New Haven, Middlesex and New London Counties, CT, along with Suffolk, Norfolk & Middlesex Counties in MA; first wave of settlers to Quebec and Ontario, Canada. Also, I am a member of the Mayflower Society after tracing my maternal side to John Billington, a Mayflower passenger ( with his family) who settled in Plymouth , and signed, the Mayflower compact.
