Greetings
I have a nice box of photos, a number of which are Newports. Problem is I cannot identify who they are. I am supposed to be related to them but luckily no ancestor thought to put names on many of these photos. My line is from Henry Newport (1790 PA)--Israel Newport (1816 OH)--Samuel Newport (OH 1850)--Lewis Clyde Newport (IL 1882)--Lawrence Ray Newport (MO 1909)--Beverly Ann Newport (MO 1935). The photos seem mostly to be of relatives who moved to Kansas ca 1890-1900. These are going to be the above mentioned Lewis Clyde Newport's siblings and their families. His siblings are as follows: Rollen Otto, Mary Emma, John William, May Belle, Samuel Burton, (LC himself), Richard Otto, Grover Cleveland, Israel Plummer and Gertrude Elizabeth. Mary married Benjamin Bruce. May married Basil Shull. Gertrude married C. Wesley Emery. I have these out of order in age, sorry, but this is all the siblings. Rollen, May, Mary, and John raised families in Finney, Lyon, Kearny and a few other counties in Kansas. Samuel had family in SD. His photos are mostly identified. I have a number of photos of John William's children and one of his two wives (with an accordian in the photo). Most of the rest are going to be Mary's and May's families. I would love to know who some of the mystery Newports are. I am willing to scan and share photos and would really appreciate it if anyone related to these Newports that know what they looked like could ID them.
Thanks
