Photos
The photographs on the following pages are from the albums of my great grandmother Margaret May Dunlop
Hancon 1875-1947 and my great great grandmother Sarah Jane Emslie Hancon 1845-1911.
Both women lived the majority of their lives in Cornwall, New York and raised their families there.
These photos which were collected over decades were saved and cherished by family members
and include various citizens of the Cornwall community and the surrounding counties. Other
people who touched their lives and are also included on this page, reach as far north as Montreal,
Canada and as far south as Savannah, Georgia. If you are able to identify any of these
individuals or if you are familiar with the photography studios, please e-mail me. Photo Album 2 Photo Album 3 |
