COTTINGHAM FAMILY PICTURES
The photo above is of my grandfather Alvin Glenn McIntosh, his cousin
Burney Montgomery Lindsey, and myself taken in the early-mid 1980s when
I was in the 9th or 10th grade. My grandfather was about 75 at the
time and his cousin, Burney Lindsey (daughter of Elizabeth Cottingham amd
George Bratton Montgomery) was about 90 years old. My grandfather
died in 1993, but cousin Burney Lindsey is still living in her own Jackson,
MS house (where the above photo was taken) and is now 104 years old.
Burney Lindsey is a Colonial Dame through her Cottingham line.
The first two photographs are of MARY CATHERINE COTTINGHAM was
born February 12, 1845 in Crystal Springs, Copiah Co, Mississippi, and
died April 26, 1911 in Crystal Springs, Copiah Co, Mississippi. She
married JOHN HOUSTON MCINTOSH June 22, 1874 in Crystal Springs, Mississippi,
son of KENNETH MCINTOSH and MATHILDA MCCLURE. The second
photograph is that of Mary Catherine Cottingham and John H. McIntosh's
youngest daughter, Emma Matilda McIntosh Clemm (1883-1971)
I need help identifying some of the siblings in this photographs taken
c. 1905 of the surviving children of Francis Mitchell Cottingham and Elizabeth
Thompson Cottingham. Please see below for the names/faces I have
linked thus far:
