photo_delp_george_and_ellen.GIF (14404 bytes) George and Ellen Delp

The only known picture of our ancestor, George Washington Delp, along with a portrait as a young woman of his wife, Ellen Almira Doolittle.

We have no information, at present, about the originals - when or where they were taken.  We can speculate they were taken about the time of their marriage in 1866 in Whiteside Co., Illinois.

This nice portrait is of Allie Belle (Delp) Watkins, second-born daughter of George and Ellen Delp.

Her granddaughter, Joan Wieringa, believes this photo was taken when she was about 40 years of age - about 1912 somewhere in California.

photo_delp_frank_and_neva.GIF (4058 bytes) Frank and Neva Delp

This very nice portrait in their later years shows Francis Eugene "Frank" and Neva Lorraine (Swartout) Delp.

The original does not indicate when or where it was taken, but we can make an educated guess.  It was taken in the late 1950s somewhere in California.

The author thanks those who have been willing to share their pictures.   If anyone would be interested in adding to this collection, the rest of the family would be grateful!  Please send a message with details.
