PLEASE ADVISE ME IF YOU HAVE ANYY INFORMATION ON THE FAMILY PHOTO THAT I POSTED: I believe the full bio children of Jacob William & Minerva Harbold are included - Andrew, Price, Edward, Walter & Nannie Elizabeth Harbold. Also possible would be the child of Minnie from prior named Myrtle Victoria Welch, and the dau of Jacob with a prior - Theodosia Harbold. Theodosia was married to Charles Hutton and they had 2 daughters born in 1892 and 1894.

Parents are possibly Cary Hopson b 1821 in NY & Emily Hopson. BUT according to newspaper article dated May 10, 1895 in the Weekly Graphic, Kirksville, MO the article states Mrs. Minerva Harbold of Bowling Green, MO was visiting her mother Mr. R. A. Galusha! Minerva married during Civil War to Wm Tully in 1860 who died a short time thereafter in St. Louis, MO. Later, Minnie married Mr. Welch 1865 & he died about 1869. Their children are Myrtle Victoria Welch born Pella Iowa 1866 & John Carrey(sp?)b 1868. After Mr. Welch died Sept 2, 1869. Minnie married Jacob William Harbold 9-2-1875 in Pike Co. Missouri. He was a widower(from Agnes Yager or Yeager, and Agnes died a few months after the birth of their daughter Theodosia Harbold in 1869. Dosia then lived with the maternal grandparents see the 1870 census and her memorial.). Minerva and "Jake" had 5 children, Andrew William, Price, Edward George, Walter Guy, & Nannie E. who married Mr. Page. Nannie died 6-10-1911 age 24 Antioch Missouri and was survived by husband William R.Page. After Jacob William & Minnie's marriage they located on a farm about 6 miles SE of Bowling Green, MO near Antioch Church. Resided here until Jan 1905 & moved to SW of Bowling Green. From there moved to the suburbs of Bowling Green about a year before she died. That is where she resided at the time of her death(2:30 a.m.) Minnie became a member of the Presbyterian Church at Antioch in about 1876 soon after her marriage to Brother Harbold and when they moved to the place near Bowling Green, her church membership was transferred to the Presbyterian Church of this place. According to Ms. Krauss/Gronek who photographed the grave marker in the Antioch Cemetary, Pike County - NOT Antioch Baptist Cemetary which can be confused with Minerva's place of burial. The funeral was conducted at the home on December 20, 1918, by the Rev. D. R. Jones and D. O. Elmore and her burial took place in the Antioch Church(much of this information is from an obituary which was copied by hand and sent to me by my cousin, who is a daughter of Walter Guy Harbold, the youngest son of JW & Minnie.)
