Eugenie Marie Surguy
I've "rescued" an old photograph of Eugenie Marie SURGUY which was taken at the J. M. Elliott Studio in Columbus, OH on 8 Sept 1892. Eugenie is noted as born 6 Jun 1892. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding Eugenie and her family:

Eugenie Marie SURGUY was b. 6 Jun 1892 in Cincinnati, OH to parents Harry Clay SURGUY (1860-1954) and Hester J. JONES (1860-1932). Eugenie married Blair Miller BENNETT (1891-1939) and the couple had one child. Eugenie died 6 Sept 1966 in Washington DC and is buried in the Rock Creek Cemetery in Washington DC.

Census records provide the following details:

I’m hoping to locate someone from Eugenie’s family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of her family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

My hobby is recovering and reuniting family treasures.

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
