Louise Collingham
I've "rescued" an old snapshot photograph of Louise COLLINGHAM with a baby in her arms which would have been taken sometime before 1940, most likely in Spokane County, WA. The photograph was in my Grandmother's old photograph album (they lived in Cheney, Medical Lake, Edwall, Waukon, and Espanola, WA) and I'd like to see it returned to the COLLINGHAM Family if possible. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Louise and her family:
Louise Ann FUHRMAN was b. 27 Mar 1891 in Canby, MN to Fred Martin FUHRMAN (1860-1928) and Wilhelmina KRAHN (1862-1938). Louise was one of 4 children born to this couple including, Willie; John; Edwin; and Louise FUHRMAN, all born between 1882 and 1891. Louise married William Henry COLINGHAM (1883-1943). Together they had two children including a son Raymond Edward Carl COLINGHAM (b. 25 Jan 1912 in Medical Lake, WA-d. 5 May 1925 in Medical Lake, WA). The family was living in Espanola, WA in 1920 through 1940. Louise died in 1961 in Washington.
Census records provide the following details:
1920 census of Espanola, WA:
William H. COLINGHAM, age 36, born NE, parents born OH/IN, a Farmer
Louise A. COLINGHAM, wife, age 28, born MN, parents born Germany
Raymond E. COLINGHAM, son, age 7, born WA
1930 census of Espanola, WA:
William H. COLINGHAM, age 46, married at age 29, born NE, parents born OH/IN, a Farmer
Louise A. COLINGHAM, wife, age 39, married at age 22, born MN, parents born Germany
Betty J. COLINGHAM, dau, age 2 years + 11 months, born WA
1940 census of Espanola, WA:
William COLINGHAM, age 56, born NE, a Farmer
Louise COLINGHAM, wife, age 49, born MN
Betty Jane COLINGHAM, dau, age 12, born WA
I’m hoping to see the photograph returned to family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
