Found Photos

These photos were generously contributed by Denver Clark.  They were found in a small shop in Indiana.  Denver notes that Brooksville is written on the back of several and he further notes that some Pendleton and Bracken County residents moved to the Dearborn, Franklin County, Indiana area.  If you recognize any of the people in the photo's please contact Denver and myself.  Thanks!  Bonnie
Some of the surnames Denver is researching include Clark, Cummins, Frakes, Gillespie, Marshall, Henderson, Turner, Evans, Cunigan, Hendrickson, Grigson, and York.

Please Note:  If you have pictures you would like to contribute to this site please contact me and I will gladly post them and give you full credit, thanks!
