Mother's Day

Wishing all a Happy Mother's Day! 

The following are photos I have of my direct ancestor females, with links to blog pages I have written about them in the past.

My 3rd Great-Grandmother, Catherine (Young) Steward with her husband Thomas Steward, and four of her children. One of them may be my 2nd Great-Grandmother, Hannah B Steward.

Catherine (ie Katherine, Katie, Catharine) died in 1875, her burial place unknown.

For more, see blog:

Hannah B Steward, daughter of Thomas and Catherine (Young) Steward, my 2nd Great Grandmother.  Her name was changed to Alberta Ann Rowell following her adoption. She died in 1901, aged 29 years, from complications after a pregnancy.
I have a page about her here:
