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.  The photos on this page date from 1912, and were likely taken in LeRoy, Genesee County, New York at the home of Frank Lincoln Walkley and Carrie Evelyn (Coe) Walkley - my grandmother's aunt and uncle.  Frank Lincoln Walkley and Carrie Evel...

  The thirteenth photo in the album is of Frank Lincoln Walkley (1867-1961), and his son Albert Coe Walkley (1896-1983), Elizabeth Coe's brother-in-law and his second son.   Frank Lincoln Walkley was born on 9 June 1867 in Pavilion, Genesee County, New York, the son of Rosman L Walkley (1838-1930) and Maryetta Peck (1843-1922).  He married Carrie Evelyn Coe (1864-1948), daughter of Albert Coe (1827-1907) and Deborah Prentice (1833-1910) on 21 June 1894 in Le Roy, Genesee County.  Frank and Carrie Walkley had five children: Fred Rosman (1895-1981), Albert Coe (1896-1983), Clarence Williard (1898-1983), Floyd Frank (1900-1981) and James Harry (1903-1985).  The Walkley family lived in Le Roy their entire married lives, where Frank was a farmer. Carrie died in Le Roy on 5 August 1948. Frank died in Wyoming County, New York on 13 July 1961. They are both buried in Machpelah Cemetery in Le Roy. Albert Coe Walkley was born on 4 October 1896 in Le Roy, the son of F...

  The twelfth photo in the album is of Carrie Evelyn Coe Walkely and her son Fred Rosman Walkley, Elizabeth Coe's sister and her oldest son.  Carrie Evelyn Coe and her twin sister Clara Addie Coe were born on 10 November 1864 in Pavilion, Genesee County, New York to Albert Coe (1827-1907) and Deborah Prentice (1833-1910).  Carrie married Frank Lincoln Walkley  (1867-1961), son of Rosman L Walkley (1838-1930) and Maryetta Peck (1843-1922) on 21 June 1894 in Le Roy, Genesee County. Carrie and her husband had five sons, Fred Rosman (1895-1981), Albert Coe (1896--1983), Clarence Willard (1898-1983), Floyd Frank (1900-1981) and James Harry (1903-1985).  They lived in Le Roy until Carrie's death on 5 August 1948.
