I've "rescued" two old photographs belonging to the SUTTON Family of Butler, PA. The first is a photograph of John & Alberta "Bertie" SUTTON which was taken at the Wagner Studio in Butler, PA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 1900's with the couple appearing to be in their 20's or 30's at the time. A note on the back indicates "John was Grandma GOULD'S cousin".? The second photograph is one of Edgar SUTTON which was taken at the Godwin Studio in Butler, PA in the 1890's with Edgar appearing to be in his 20's at the time. Edgar is noted as "a cousin" and "brother of John" as well. ??Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the SUTTON Family:
?
John Everett SUTTON Sr. was b. 7 Jul 1874 in Pennsylvania to parents Platt Roberson SUTTON (1842-1927) and Sarah Jane CAMPBELL (1844-1918).? John was one of 7 children born to this couple including Robert Plummer; Joseph Edgar; George Willis; John Everett; Mary Ellen; Henry “Harry” Marshall or Marshal; and Edward SUTTON all born between 1866 and 1888.? John married Alberta May CAMPBELL (1877-1961) in 1896 and they had 5 children including, Lula Mae; Earl E.; Ruth Irene; John Everett Jr.; and Eva Glee SUTTON all born between 1896 and 1917.? John died 23 Jun 1965 in New Brighton, PA and is buried in the Concord Cemetery in Hooker, PA.? Alberta May CAMPBELL was b. 4 Nov 1877 in Concord Township, Butler Co., PA to parents William Harrison CAMPBELL (1848-1917) and Elizabeth Jane CAMPBELL (1851-1928) who were married 11 Jan 1870.? Alberta May was one of 5 children born to this couple including, John Palmer; Mary Etta; Alberta May; Luella; and Frank M. CAMPBELL.? Alberta died 19 Sept 1961 in Concord Township, Butler Co., PA and is buried in the Concord Cemetery in Hook, PA. ?
?
Joseph Edgar SUTTON was b. 18 Dec 1869 in Pennsylvania and died 20 Jan 1900 in Concord, PA and is buried in the Concord Cemetery in Hooker, PA.
?
I am hoping to return the photographs to family.? If you are a member of this family or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

Thanks,
Shelley
