I decided to start this blog to let all of you know what I have found so far on our Cloward Family History lines. I'm just starting but have been learning a lot and have found some interesting information as I have gone along. Wendy and I have taken a few trips now to Pennsylvania in the past year, and this last one we took dad and mom with us. We saw some beautiful country, how hard it must have been for Jacob and Ann to leave these beautiful surroundings and family for their beliefs. They were strong people, I will share pictures and information that I gather so that you can learn more about our ancestors as well.

On Monday, Kimberley Walsh contacted me through this blog and shared that she had photos!! So these are photos that she has shared with us. These are part of the private collection of Kimberley Walsh, 4 x great granddaughter of Thomas Cloward and Eliza Jane DuShane Cloward. This Thomas Cloward would be a nephew to Jacob Cloward and cousin to Thomas Poulsen Cloward. Thank you so much Kimberley for sharing these photos with all of us!!

Alceus Day, Kimberley shared with me that "Alceus Ballou Day founded the Red Cross although he did not get credit  as he was an alcoholic and his reputation was tarnished. Clara Barton got credit for starting the Red Cross. Alceus and Clara worked together"
