Priscilla Hobson Way
I've got two old photographs belonging to the WAY Family of Pennsylvania. The first is one of Caleb WAY which was taken at the R. Steinebach Studio in Philadelphia, PA. The second is a photograph of Priscilla WAY taken at the same studio. The two photographs were likely taken in the 1860's or 1870's with the couple likely in their 30's or 40's at the time the photographs were taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the couple:
Caleb Pugh WAY was b. 4 Mar 1824 or 11 Aug 1824 in Kennett Square, PA to parents Joshua WAY (1796-1881) and Sidney HUTTON (1800-1849) who were married in 1820. Caleb was one of 10 children born to this couple including Alban or Alben Ammor; Edwin Fussell; Thomas H.; Caleb Pugh; Husan; Susan; Hiett; William Hiett or Hiet; Emma; and Emmer or Emmor H. WAY, all born between 1821 and 1840. Caleb married Priscilla HOBSON (1832-1924) on 30 Oct 1851 in West Chester, PA and the couple had 6 children including Florence Sidney; Josephine Hobson; Mary Jane “Jennie”; Annie Maude; Maude; and Benjamin Hiett WAY, all born between 1853 and 1869. Caleb died 1 Aug 1871 in Kennett Square, PA and is buried in the Union Hill Cemetery in Kennett Square, PA.
Priscilla HOBSON was b. 1 Mar 1832 in Pittsburgh, PA to parents Benjamin HOBSON (1803-1884) and Ann MACCABEE (b. 1813) who were married abt. 1831 in Pennsylvania. Priscilla was one of 7 children born to this couple including Priscilla; Josephine; Frank J.; Elizabeth; Mary Jane; John Edgar; and Laura HOBSON, all born between 1832 and 1850. Priscilla died 14 Aug 1924 in Red Bank, NJ and is buried along with her husband in the Union Hill Cemetery in Kennett Square, PA. At the time of her death, she was living with her daughter Maude W. ELY in Red Bank, NJ. Her obituary also listed other children surviving her including Mrs. Josephine MCKEEVER of McKeesport, PA; a sister Mrs. Jennie RAKESTRAW of Christiantl, PA; and brothers John E. HOBSON of Texas; and Frank J. HOBSON of Chicago, IL.
I’d like to get these treasures to a family member and would appreciate you reaching out to me at your earliest convenience regarding the photographs and this family.
Thanks,
Shelley
