This photo circa 1893-1894, is of another great great grandmother, Margaret Ferry (Brown) Ormsby. She was born September 30, 1831 in Bradford county, PA. She was the second wife of Luther Ormsby, Jr. They married December 19, 1854 in Howard, Steuben county, NY. They came to Bedford between 1875 & 1880, where they were next door neighbors to the Elmer Kidder family. After the death of her husband, Margaret Ormsby returned to visit her relatives in Cortland & Groton, NY for a couple years, where this photo was taken. She later returned to the home of her son Lucien Ormsby in Bedford.
