Carl Albert Herring
I have an old postcard photograph of Carl HERRING which was taken in 1918 at the F. A. Mack & Bro. Studio in Pottsville, PA. Carl appears to be about 1 year old at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Carl and his family:
Carl Albert HERRING was b. 15 Dec 1917 in Wayne Township, Schuylkill Co., PA to parents Andrew Jackson HERRING (1877-1968) and Hannah Rebecca FEHR (1880-1953) who were married 14 Feb 1903 in Schuylkill Co., PA. Carl was one of three children born to this couple including Paul Jonathan; Grace Irene; and Carl Albert HERRING, all born between 1903 and 1917. It appears that Carl’s father was married previously and had a daughter Ethel M. HERRING (1901-1938). Carl married Naomi Lorraine REED (1920-1988) on 11 Mar 1939 in Schuylkill Co., PA and they had four children, two boys and two girls.
Carl died 11 May 2000 in Pottsville, PA and is buried in the Schuylkill Memorial Park Cemetery in North Manheim Township, Schuylkill Co., PA. Carl’s obituary lists his surviving family members including two sons, Guy HERRING of Allentown, PA and Dale HERRING of Pine Grove, PA, and two daughters Shirley HIRST of Newark, DE and Faye ANDERSON of Friedensburg, PA.
I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this HERRING Family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
