The Gorby Family - Descendants of Joseph, Generation III
Born about 1746, died 1840-1850
The Daguerreotype Process for taking photographs was not made public until
1840, so for a photograph of Hannah Stilley Gorby to exist, she must have lived past 1840
into her 90s. Note: The 1936 Book was incorrect in that Hannah was not the second
wife of Joseph Generation II, she was the wife of his son, Joseph Generation III.
Have you seen this photo?
In the 1930s, this daguerrotype in it's case, was in the possession of
Lewis Vernon Justison of Columbiana Co, OH. It has not been seen in
recent years and it's current whereabouts are unknown. Also missing is
the photograph he had of Ann (Pierce) Gorby, wife of Samuel George. If
you have any infomation about the location of these items, please contact us.
Thanks to Marge Higginson for supplying us this photo from her copy
of the 1936 Gorby Book.
