Pelham Family of Malone, Iowa

PELHAM, REESE

Posted By: Clark Kidder (email)

Hi,
My grandmother, Emily (Reese) Kidder, was taken in by the C. H. Pelham family of Malone on August 22, 1906 from an orphan train, at the age of 14. The Pelhams farmed 120 acres, and had a son name Arthur, who was born in 1900. She stayed with the Pelhams until March 21, 1907, and attended a local school.
I am looking for information on the Pelham family, including any living descendants. I'm interested in finding a photograph of my grandmother that may have been taken during her stay with the Pelhams, or at a local school. Emily was born March 28, 1892 in Brooklyn, New York.
A photo of Cornelius H.? Pelham and family, or their farm, would also be of interest to include in a book I am writing on my grandmother's life.
Thanks so much for your help!
