WOW I had Josiah's marriage and kids written somewhere on a scrap paper and I remember writing down Edith but couldn't get past that generation because the census didn't go any further to have found out married names. Wow I am staggered.
I have a HUGE album from South Rondout of many GLUM people and not a single one is labeled that I can tell because they are tightly inset pictures and crumbled when I tried to slide them out. Unless anyone has other pictures to identify folks it is essentially worthless.
My father was Arthur Stratton Gurney son of William Arthur son of George (I don't have middle name in front of me). William Arthur and my fathers mother Mary Foley divorced when he was two and his father did not do a good daddy job of being in touch with him. Alfred H. had no children and sent my father to college at Brown in Providence. In fact my mother wound up in foster care for a chunk of his childhood and suffered from it. I have a four generational picture of Mary, William my father and me in 1954. My parents were married when my father was 37 so maybe that explains the extra generation. Edith would have been my fathers half cousin as Josiah was his half uncle. He was called Joe in correspondence I have from George during WWI when Alfred was in Europe first with the YMCA and then as a reporter. I have a picture of Josiah too which of course you would too. Have a great vacation. I am not very good with attachments etc but can try to take pictures of pictures and send them too. I also corresponded with an Alison at the south Rondout museum because I thought someone there might be interested in the people pictures. She was more interested in the boats. I also have newspapers talking about the German sub and boat accident John had. Have a great vacation. Feel free to use my email Ellen
