An undated photograph of the Jonathan C. Willier family of Lykens Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. Sometimes, this family interchanged the surname with Williard.
Identifications:
Front Row (seated): —-?—–, daughter; —–?—–, daughter.
Back Row (standing, etc): Jonathan C. Willier, father; —–?—–, daughter, held; —–?—–, daughter, standing; Elmira “Myhia” [Klinger] Willier, mother, seated; —–?—–, daughter.
From an on-line genealogy, the following were children of Jonathan and Elmira: Catherine E. [Willier] Moyer Minnich, born about 1876; Mary McClata [Willier] Klinger, daughter, born about 1877; Dorothy Dorsey Angeline [Willier] Klinger, born about 1881; Moses Allen Williard, born about 1889; Emma Jane [Willier] Daniel Buffington, born about 1891. This family also had a son, Theodore Elias Willier, born about 1881 and died about 1882. The problem in identifying the children in the photo is that there are five children pictured, four of whom are girls, with the gender of the baby unknown. But, the male child is not the youngest of the children in the genealogy.
A date of this photograph has also not been established.
