I've "rescued" an old photograph of Everett COGSWELL which was taken at the
Philley Studio in Lowell, Michigan. The photograph appears to have been
taken in the 1880's with Everett only an infant at the time. Based on
limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding
Everett and his family:
Everett C. COGSWELL was b. 28 Apr 1888 in Boston or Lowell, Michigan to
parents William H. COGSWELL (1863-1906) and Zella M. CARR (1864-1925), both
parents born in Michigan. Everett married Mary or Marie L. CUNNINGHAM
SERVOSS (1882-1972 the dau of Andrew & Elizabeth CUNNINGHAM) on 4 May 1922
in Cedar Springs, MI. Everett was living in Pontiac, MI when he registered
for the draft in 1917 listing his occupation as a Cook and his employer as
Cliff Root. Everett d. 9 Dec 1962 in Lansing, MI and is buried in the
Oakwood Cemetery in Lowell, Michigan.
Census records provide the following details:

I am hoping to locate someone from this COGSWELL Family so that the
photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of
this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
