Ralph Percy WINN Family Photograph
I've recovered two old photographs belonging to the WINN Family of Massachusetts. The first is a photograph of Ralph P. WINN taken in the early 1900's. There is no studio or location indicated on the photograph and Ralph appears to be in his 20's at the time the photograph was taken. The second photograph is of a family with parents and five children which was taken in the 1890's at the J. K. Patch Studio in Shelburne Falls, MA. The name Maude WINN of Davis, MA is written on the back of the photograph. I don't think Maude is in this photograph, rather it was probably a gift to her. I believe that this is likely a photograph of Maude and Ralph's sister Marion M. WINN PHILLIPS and her husband Ralph Jay PHILLIPS and their first 5 children, taken in the mid-1890's. The youngest two are girls, then a boy, and the two oldest girls, all ranging in age from infant to about 8 years.
Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family:
Ralph Percy WINN was b. 20 or 21 Mar 1874 in Halifax, Vermont to parents John Coleman WINN (1840-1918) and Ella Maria CROSIER or GRANT or CASIAS (1850-1936) who were married 16 Aug 1866. Ralph was one of 8 children born to this couple including Mary M.; Marrion or Marion Marcia; John Cassius or Cassins; Walter Waldo; Ralph Percy; Baby Boy; Baby Boy; and Maud or Maude Ella WINN, all born between 1868 and 1882. Ralph married Lillian May MOSHER (1884-1966) on 7 Jun 1905 in Halifax, VT and they had a daughter Ella Constance or Constantine “Connie” WINN PINKNEY (1906-1997). Ralph died 13 Apr 1957 in Rowe, MA and he is buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery in Jacksonville, VT.
I am hoping to locate someone from this WINN Family so that the photographs can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
