Wandering Around The Family Tree

Sometime in about 1904, someone in my grandmother Evelyn Clara Call's (1895-1962) family started taking photographs and placing them in an album. My grandmother was nine in 1904, so she could have been the photographer. Or it could have been one of her parents Charles Joslin Call (1859-1939) or Elizabeth Ann (Coe) Call (1861-1956). Most of the early photographs are of family gatherings and places someone visited. I believe by about 1911, my grandmother was taking the photographs. There are photos of her classmates at Batavia High School and groups of teenage girls.  The Call family live in Stafford, Genesee County, New York. They had a cottage at Silver Lake in Wyoming County. So many of the photos were taken in these locations.  Two of the photographs on this page are definitely photos of Irving Joslyn Call, my grandmother's younger brother. The others may well be photos of Irving as well, there just aren't enough details to be sure.  Irving Joslyn Call Irving Joslyn Cal...

 In ????, Robert Call bought Prospect Farm in Stafford, Genesee County, New York from ????.  After Robert's death, his son Charles Joslin Call and his family moved onto the farm. Charles' son Irving Joslyn Call took after the farm after the death of his parents. The farm is still owned by members of the Call family.  I'll be sharing photos of the farm and farmhouse here.  Shared December 2024 Camperdown Elm in the Snow December 1938 20 February 1940 Prospect Farm  Shared January 2025 Built in Aquarium Prospect Farm  Aquarium December 1938

    I've started editing/re-editing some family photos. Figure I'll post the images here as groups, and add to the posts as I get photos edited.  So this will be Call family group photos - siblings, cousins, etc. It seems like every time the family got together - someone lined them all up for a group photo. I'll provide best estimates for year photo was taken and identification of family members.  If you would like larger copies of the photos or more info about the Call/Coe family, please email me  (link to email is on my profile) - I'm always happy to share.  Shared January 2025 Call Family at Silver Lake Cottage Probably July 1924 Back row: Charles Arthur Call, Marion Alberta Call, Robert Vincent Call, Irving Joslyn Call, Francis William Hankins, Helen Elizabeth Call Middle Ros: Edith Alberta (Call) Jones, Alden Malvern Call, Lucille Alice (Hale) Call, Elizabeth Ann (Coe) Call, Charles Joslin Call, Evelyn Clara (Call) Hankins, Bertha May (Hotchkiss) ...
