These photos were in a small brown album with a clasp, found circa 1975 in the house in Treadwell that was once owned by Henry Jester and his wife, Mary Estella Davidson. Henry Jester was the son of John A. Jester and Prudence Almira Hall.

John A. Jester's parents were Richard Jester and Lydia Goldsmith.

Prudence Almira Hall's parents were Lyman Hall and Emeline Clark.

The photo's I can Identify are:

Lydia Goldsmith Jester, b. 1816
Sarah Ely Goldsmith, b. 1790, d. 1877
Richard Cutler, son of Louisa Jester and James Cutler, b. 1859
Wilber Hall, son of Roger Hall and Hannah Jester, b. 1866
Henry Jester as a baby, b. 1864
Harold Jester, b. 1893

Most of the photographers were in Franklin, a few in Delhi and Walton, and one in North Harpersfield.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone with insight into the identities of the prople in the pictures. My husband is a great-grandson of Henry Jester. Thank you. Kathleen A. Carey, careyride@yahoo.com, January 11, 2016
