Green Acre, 1912

Month, Day: 172, Perfection, Words (Independence)

The Bahai World, Vol. VII (1936-1938) had photos taken at Green Acre in the summer of 1912. I ran across this blog page (Worldwide Community) that provided names of the attendees with the photos. On seeing this mapping (individuals are numbered) of names to the photos, a couple of things came to mind. For one, some of those there have descendants. It would be nice to identify web stuff that might relate to these descendants (disclosure: the blogger knows families that were there). Then, we could talk about the ancestry of some attendees as they are descendants of old American families.

In the blog post, there are four photos which are shown below in order by panels. Also, in the post, the people are numbered; names are provided where someone is known. The Master is in Panel 3.

I put in a link to a blog about Henry Lunt who is the arriving ancestor (1634) of Alfred E. Lunt. This will be an on-going effort.

Remarks:  06/08/2020

08/09/2015 -- Alfred Eastman Lunt is a descendant of Henry Lunt (1634), as is Thornton Chase who was not present.

 05/27/2019 -- Changed the link for Alfred Eastman Lunt to point to his findagrave record. This week, I worked on his mother's family after seeing that her findagrave had been updated improperly. Still working to get those changes done (don't manage the records, updates have been requested). His mother was Elizabeth A. (Blake) Lunt. Her findagrave record now points to the appropriate mother and father for her, John Blake and Ruth S. Ladd. Too, their records point to work on WikiTree where information is being shown as we research.
