Hi there, I have about 2 dozen unidentified family photos posted at
this website. These photos are all that are on this page.

Below is a brief summary of my pedigree through my father’s
parents, and back through his mother’s Jergins lineage to our first Jergins
male ancestor to come to the United States from Prussia. The photos were found
among the belongings of my great-aunt Della Stella Jergins Mahaffey when she
died. Her mother was Emma Zelma Zuhn Jergins, the 2nd wife of my
great-grandfather William Edward Jergins.

If you recognize anyone, please contact me, Cathey Cline, at
. Possible surnames, besides those that are unknown, include
Jergins, Phillips, Zuhn, Clark, Weldy and Howard. Thank you in advance for your
help.
