step: lady, lady, next step: young man, top step: Samuel Warren sr. (my
father, holding me) Alexander (my father's Uncle Zan Bell) standing: man,
man, man. This picture (taken about 1932)
on the porch steps of the PA farm) would not have included Samuel Bell
(1820 - 1902) or Mary Gamble (1830 - 1914). It's possible that Charles
Bell and his son Wells are here, but I suspect that most that I cannot
identify are relatives of Mary Gamble. She was born in McKeesport PA. My
mother probably took this picture at the McKeesport,PA farm.
