This is the Face of Genealogy

Susanna Jermyn Pemberton (abt 1820-1891)
My great-great-great-great-grandmother

Thanks to Debbie Kraus's Tripp-Smith family tree on Ancestry.com, I was able to see what Susanna looked like. Debbie is the great-granddaughter of Susanna's son, Samuel Pemberton. I am the great-great-great-granddaughter of Susanna's son, John Pemberton. My mom's second cousin, Steven, is the one that informed me that Debbie had this picture.

  2. Hello! My name is Molly and we are distantly related. I own an original of this photo. On the back it is inscribed Ellen McCoy. I am a descendant of Samuel Pemberton - William Henry Pemberton and Ellen Pemberton was my mother's mother. I am JUST as of yesterday trying to learn more about my ancestors and am so thankful for your site.
