This is a picture of my mother, Earnese Pierce.
How does one marry after they’ve died?
I can see her beauty inside.
Nice pictures. I know you will cherish them.
Randolph, I certainly goofed … Malinda was married 26 December 1886 and died 17 January 1904.

The picture of Earnese is simply elegant.
It certainly is nice to see the pictures you must cherish. I know I cherish each and everyone of my photos and you never know who may be looking for one you have.
Thanks to everybody who shares these photos with us.
One of Malinda Hively Ramsey’s ancestors apparently was Daniel Hively, whose sister Susannah married one of my ancestors, Jacob Bibler Sr., after the families moved from Virginia to Fairfield Co., OH _ and before many of the Hivelys and Biblers moved to Indiana. I decided to check the Hively line further than I had before seeing the photo, and now, thanks in good part to Ancestry.com and Patricia Hively Bogel, I know of a number of additional distant relatives _ and even have a photo of one of them.
Neil, Malinda’s grandfather was Daniel Hively and he was Susannah’s sister. I’d be glad to share .. contact me at [email protected]
the picture is very beautiful of Malinda, I would like to know if that is her hair draped down her back or is it a shaw?
The picture of Earnese Pierce is SO beautiful and
Captivating…She was a very pretty lady….it makes
you wonder what she was thinking of when she was
smiling.
Maryann, that is her hair. My daughter told me that the picture always scared her when she was a young girl, but yet she was drawn to it.
