Hi Sarah,
I have a water color Gibson Girl like portrait that is signed Chumbley. It is very well done and I am trying to find out more about the artist. It has a pencil date on the back as Dec, 9, 1914. I found it in a little shop in Glasgow, Missouri which is in the middle of the state. Here is a link to the picture.

Does she look like the Chumbley's or any of the sisters work?
Did any of their family move to Missouri?
Mary

Look it up and see if you get a response from her. The posting is old though...

Beverly Jean Chumbley Trease was one of Robert Green Chumbley's great granddaughters and a first cousin of my mother, who's name also happens to be Beverly Jean. On April 20, 2003 I opened up an email from a Beverly Trease. Her daughter, Kathy, had been doing some research on the Chumbley's and came across my email address and asked me if my parents were Beverly Jean who had married a Wes Wierson. I was so excited and couldn't wait to tell my mother. Beverly, Kathy and I started emailing each other and on July 29, 2003 I met Kathy and her husband at my house here in Missouri. We got on the phone and talked to each other's mothers. We started referring to my mother as Beverly Jean 1 and Kathy's mother as Beverly Jean 2 as my mother was born in March 1931 and Kathy's June 1931. We laughed and cried while sharing pictures and stories. My mother hadn't talked to or seen her cousin, Beverly Jean 2, in at least 40 years and both Beverly Jeans finally got to talk to each other sho!
rtly after Kathy and I met and some correspondence after that. Both Beverly Jeans were so excited that Kathy and I got to meet and make that Chumbley connection. Kathy's mother and my mother shared so many wonderful memories of playing together at Grandpa Andy's in southern Iowa as little girls. Kathy's mother had a copy of a picture made for me to give my mother of the two of them when they were about 10 or 11 that will be cherished forever. When I was up to visit my mother in Iowa for Easter, she had found her diary she kept from 1940 thru 1944 and found an entry from 1941 where she, her brother, Max, the other Beverly Jean and her brother, Robert, had played and spent the night at Grandpa Andy's. She finally decided that must have been when the picture was taken. I wish my mother and I had been able to meet Beverly Jean 2 in person but will always be thankful that she sent that email to me almost a year ago to make that connection and that I did get to talk with her an!
d hear a kind and gentle voice on the other end. She made me feel like
I had already met her and known her for years. I pray that God will give Kathy continued strength to get through this very difficult time. I've heard that friends are stitched together by patches of memories but I also believe it works the same for families. God bless you Beverly Jean Chumbley Trease!
