Ruth May Marvin Thomas

I have an old studio photograph of Ruth MARVIN which was taken at the Shepherd Studio in St. Paul, MN. The photograph was liking taken in the 1890's or early 1900's with Ruth appearing to be about 6-8 years old at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research and thanks to a family researcher I was able to gather the following information regarding Ruth and her family:

Ruth May MARVIN was b. 25 Nov 1894 in St. Paul, MN to parents Earl Leach MARVIN (1866-1927) and Minnie May GREEN (1874-1969) who were married 21 Feb 1894 in Cass County, ND. Ruth was one of three children born to this couple including siblings DeWitt Theodore MARVIN (1896-1898) and Margaret Evelyn MARVIN KNAPP (1898-1900). Ruth married Charles Johnson THOMAS (1890-1982) about 1917 and they had two children including Margaret Patricia “Patsy” THOMAS KNEASS (1918-2020) and Katherine Marvin THOMAS BATTLE (1919-2001).

Ruth died 23 May 1987 in Multnomah County, OR. Her daughter Katherine had three children including Robert, Patricia, and Katharine BATTLE, all born between 1947 and 1955.

I am hoping to get this treasure back to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.

Thanks,
Shelley
