The
following photo was taken at the Chaneysville Normal School on
June 23, 1908
according
to the writing on the slate being held by the young lady in the
front row.
Can
someone identify any of the people in the photo?
Chaneysville
Normal School - 1908
The
following picture is also a Chaneysville School Photo (I suspect
also a normal school class).
There
appears to be at least one person in common in these two school
pictures. The person in the first row, extreme left, appears
to be the same in both pictures. Three of my relatives are in
the photo below:
Conda
Roy Knee (1886-1956) son of William
Henry Knee (1853-1932) (who was
a cabinet maker and undertaker in Chaneysville) and Elisa Hamilton (1857-1888) is seated
in the first row, second from the left.
Norman
W. Cooper (1882-1954) a son of
George W. Cooper (1854-1938)
(who
was a well known carpenter in southern Bedford County)
and
Sarah Catherine Mundwiler (1854-1939) is in the
second row, third from the left.
Effie
May Cooper (1886-1975) daughter
of George and Sarah Cooper.
The
Cooper parents lived their last years in a home on the corner
(next to the church) in
Clearville,
Pa. Effie is sitting next to her brother (fourth from the left
in the second row).
Conda
Knee and Effie Cooper married a couple years
after this picture was taken (1911)
and
two years later, moved to Shelby, Richland County, Ohio.
