Photographs

 

 

I have long thought about including photographs within the site.  Some Pitre descendants have also suggested this as well as sending me copies of their old photos. 

 

There are also dozens of Pitre photos online at ancestry.com.  I will try to include connections to these from the appropriate pages.

 

This page will have a list of every photo included in the site, but I'll also try to add links from the appropriate page on which the person is listed.  If you have any Pitre photos, preferably someone born before 1900, and would like them included please send them along.

 

Below is the beginning of the project:

 

Pierre Pitre 1847-1920 & Elizabeth Marceline Henault 1856-1936 (wedding day)

This photo was in an album which belonged to Cheryl Bader's grandmother Bessie Marilla Snyder (wife of Leo Julius Petre 1891-1948).  Cheryl thinks Leo is the 2nd from left in the top row.  Can anyone identify anyone in the photo, place and or date?  Above are earlier photos of Leo & his brother Clarence.

Possible family members of Leo Julius Petre

 

Moyse Pitre  1850 - after 1910

Front row (l to r): Marie Julie (1879), 2nd wife Marie Pitre (1865), Moyse Pitre (1850) with Henry (1897), Charlotte (1881)

Identification of each person is my assumption based on age.  Please contact me if this is incorrect.  Thanks go to the contributor David Branch (Pitre descendant through Marie Julie Pitre).
