Early Cunningham family photo found in California collection


Thanks to Peggy Mosher Sciarillo of Huntington Beach, California, for sharing this wonderful old photo of the Alfred V. Cunningham family, taken in about 1889 -- probably in front of their home in Trumbull or Giltner, Nebraska.  

Parents Alfred and Mary Jane Cunningham are seated.  The oldest boy (standing at left) is Rayburn.  Clarence is on his father's lap, while Lawson is on his mother's lap.  The note on the back of the picture states that Rayburn and Clarence were born in Onargo, Illinois, while Lawson was born in Trumbull, Nebraska.  

Both Giltner and Trumbull are in Hamilton County, just a few miles southeast of Hastings, Nebraska.  For a closer look at this and other Galey and Cunningham family photos, visit our Photo Gallery.
