I’ve recovered an old photograph identified as Sam, Rheak, and Vergie BEAVER or BEAVERS. The photograph appears to have been taken some time between 1907 and 1917 and given to Miss Finnie PARDON or LARDON who is a cousin to those in the photograph. The baby in the photograph appears to be about one year old and the parents likely in their teens or 20’s at the time. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding this family: Samuel “Sam” Starling or Sterlin BEAVER or BEAVERS was b. Oct 1890 in Georgia to parents John Anderson BEAVERS (1859-1934) and Mary Amanda “Mandie” or “Manda” Melissa HASSLER (1873-1939). Sam was one of 18 children born to this couple including William Dane or David; Samuel S.; Jonathan “John” Morgan; Tom “Tommy” Anderson; Jimmy “Jim” Jothan, Jonathan, or Jathan; Mary; Lillie May or Mae; Joe Henry; Charlie Fulmer or Austin; Eli Owen; Mattie Ree; Annie Lee; Ben Farrington; Myrtle Amanda; Norman William; Corrie Oneda; Rudolf or Rodolf or Rudolph Monroe; Fred; and Woodrow W. BEAVER or BEAVERS, all born between 1889 and 1918. Sam & Rheak BEAVER or BEAVERS had 8 children including Virginia “Vergie” or “Virgie” Kennedy; Winnie B.; Opal L.; Enna: Vick S.; Samuel S. Jr.; Kenneth Hassler BEAVER or BEAVERS and one other boy, all born between 1912 and 1927. Sam died 20 Jun 1953 in Boone Co., WV and is buried in Madison, WV. Uereka or Ureca or Ureka or Ulreca “Rheak” SWANSON was b. 5 Aug 1894 in Murray Co., GA to parents Ballous “Bailey” McGensg or McGeng SWANSON (1857-1933) and Maggie May MOORE (1867-1920). Rheak was one of 6 children born to this couple including Rheak; Pearl Mae; William “Willie” or “Will” Edgar; Millie; Ralph or Routh McKinley; and James “Jim” Joseph SWANSON, all born between 1894 and 1906. Rheak died 31 Mar 1943 in Georgia and is buried in the Cool Springs Baptist Church Cemetery in Murray County, GA. Virginia “Vergie” Kennedy BEAVER was b. 7 Sept 1912 in Georgia and married William Paul “Barney” BROWN (1910-1972) on 19 Feb 1928 and they had a daughter. Vergie died 26 Aug 2005 and is buried in the Clearfield Cemetery in Clearfield, KY. I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
