The back of the photo reads, "Deborah Jennings, My Great Grandmother." Photographer is Folsom of Danbury, Connecticut. I found a Deborah Jennings (born abt 1830, NY) married to Charles Jennings (born abt 1816, NY) in an 1880 Manhattan, NY census. They had a daughter, Emily (born approx. 1843 in NY). There is also a 1900 Danbury, CT census which shows a Deborah Jennings, born Oct 1834 in NY, widow, who bore 1 child. She was living with a married sister named Emily Bates in Danbury. Her sister, Emily, was born abt Sept 1832 in NY, who bore 3 children and two children were still living in 1900. If you are related to Deborah, let me know.
Date & Place:
in Danbury / Fairfield County, Connecticut USA
