Ruth Deitrick, Bessie and Anna Belle's father was Frank L Blow. He would have been born around 1860 or so. He had a son Frank E. Blow born in 1893. This picture is probably Frank E.

Births here seem to be more like 1910-1912- e.g. Paul Toombs and Weldon Welfling, resp. Another generation yet? I estimate the photo, CHS track&field or cross country team? 1928.

1929 - WELDON WOODROW WELFING
Weldon Woodrow Welfling (1912-1978) is the son of Potter Co. School Superintendent, Rudolph O Welfing (1877-1918) and school teacher, Potter County Historical co-founder, Mary E Erway (1880-1974). After high school, Weldon went on to be a medical doctor in Shaker Heights, Ohio.
Doug Vaughan, knowing that your dad’s family resided in Sweden Valley, Coudersport, do you have any knowledge of the Francis Vaughn (different spelling), 2nd from left in the front row?

Doug Vaughan
Paul, I don't have photos at hand to compare but it's possible that's my great-uncle Francis, surname misspelled in caption; any family resemblance is remote, however. ("Our" Francis looked more like the taller guy kneeling in the front row, middle: can you check that typed caption?) Chronology is off, too: My grandfather Sewell Vaughan moved his own family from my great-grandfather's farm on Sweden Hill to Sweden Valley in mid-1930s, when my dad was 6-8, to take a job working on the roads for the county during the Depression. But a couple years later they moved to Genessee. By the time of this photo, 1923, Sewell's youngest brother, Francis Lyle Vaughan, born 1911 in KY, would have been 12; he may have attended school in Coudersport but this "Francis Vaughn" looks older. Ours moved from the farm, too, in late 1930s, joined the Army, served in Washington, DC, area assigned to the Pentagon/War Dept, rose to colonel, retired in the late 50s, moved to AZ, died heirless in Fairfax, VA in mid-60s. I'll get biographical details and get back to you.

Doug Vaughan, my error. Francis is the tall guy, center front.
I would say that these guys are closer to 16-18 years old and that would put this photo at circa 1929. This is a Potter Co. Historical Society photo.

Woodrow Wilson must have been popular in the family, my father named Wilson.

What a difference colorization makes! nicely done, Paul Lynn Gardner, and thank you. (An earlier post by Lanny, of the same photo in the Potter/McKean Genealogy Group.)

I find it fascinating to see old pictures and knowing what happens with/to/by them later in life.... and vice versa. George Brehmer, standing next to Weldon, perpetrated a murder-suicide in 1937 in downtown Coudersport, a love triangle that involved the brother John William Scott of my neighbor on Center Park St, Ken Scott, from Hebron. Tragic.

John, I know this story. Ken Scott was my 2nd cousin 1x removed. His mother Mabel Violet Clark Scott and my grandmother, Grace Clark Kenealy were first cousins, their fathers were brothers. Didn’t recognize Brehmer name. Thanks for being so thorough!

Brenda Kenealy Williams I had the relationships in my Tree but I hadn't worked it out, your relationship to Ken et al. I was shocked when I started researching the neighborhood and found out that Ken and Clara Drabert Scott came from old Hebron families. It had never occurred to me as a kid that they came from ... anywhere, and that they had histories and... I spent a lot of time with ken back in the day.
