I've "rescued" an old photograph of Amos CLAY which was taken at the M. G.
Ritter Studio in Lebanon, Pennsylvania. I believe that the photograph was
probably taken sometime in the early 1900's and that Amos was probably in
his 20's or 30's at the time. Based on limited research I believe this may
be a photograph of Amos D. CLAY, so of David Z. & Catherine B. CLAY who were
living in East Hanover, PA during the 1900 census. Census records provide
the following information regarding the family:
David Z. CLAY, age 45, born Aug 1854, married 26 years, born in PA, parents
born in PA, a Carpenter
Catherine B. CLAY, wife, age 48, born Apr 1852, married 26 years, 6
children/4 living, born in PA, parents born in PA
John I. CLAY, son, age 19, born May 1881, born in PA, a Farm Laborer
Amos D. CLAY, son, age 15, born Mar 1884, born in PA, a Farm Laborer
Calvin J. CLAY, son, age 8, born Aug 1891, born in PA
Mary A. CLAY, sister, age 58, born Feb 1842, born in PA
In the 1910 census of East Hanover, PA I locate records for Amos D. CLAY:
Amos D. CLAY, age 25, born in PA, parents born in PA, a Farmer
David Z. CLAY, father, age 55, married 36 years, born in PA, parents born in
PA, a Laborer

born in PA, parents born in PA
Calvin I. CLAY, brother, age 18, born in PA, a Laborer
Mary A. CLAY, Aunt, age 68, born in PA, parents born in PA
In the 1920 census of East Hanover, PA I find Amos D. CLAY still residing:
Amos D. CLAY, age 35, born in PA, parents born in PA, a Farmer
Lizzie CLAY, wife, age 31, born in PA, parents born in PA
Carrie S. CLAY, dau, age 8, born in PA

I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that this wonderful old
photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this
family, or know someone who might be, please contact me.
