FOUND: Photo of Amanda (Hutson) Stoutenour of Elkhart County

Shelley Cardiel (cardiels@comcast.net) has found this photo of Amanda HUTSON STOUTENOUR which was taken at the Brittingham Studio. There is no location indicated on the photograph, though it is dated 1888.

According to the limited research Shelley was able to do, Amanda HUTSON was born May 1841 in Ohio and married John STOUTENOUR (born 1840) in Elkhart County, Indiana on 19 October 1884.

Census records provide the following details:

1900 census of Elkhart County, Indiana - Union Township, town of Nappanee:
John STOUTENOUR, age 59, born November 1840, married 15 years, born Pennsylvania, parents born Pennsylvania, a Retired Farmer
--Amanda STOUTENOUR, wife, age 59, born May 1841, married 15 years, 1 child/1 living, born Ohio, parents born Ohio
--Cora STOUTENOUR, daughter, age 20, born September 1879, born Ohio, a Bookkeeper

Shelley is hoping to locate someone from this Hutson/Stoutenour family so that the photo can be returned to the care of family. If you are a descendant of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact her directly.
