SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

The Cornerstone Genealogical Society Collection photographs have been donated by various individuals or families over the years. The collection has been divided into series according to the donating individual. These series may or may not be interrelated since they potentially represent any number of Greene County families.

The photographs within each series were either maintained in original order or, if there was no original order, arranged by family; however, additional photos continue to be added to the end of the series as they are shared for scanning. Consequently, it is best to use the CGSP Collection Index to look for specific individuals or subjects.

*The Nancy Laureanne (Throckmorton) Meighen Series (Catalogue Code: AN001) photographs were passed from Thomas Morford Throckmorton [1858-1925] and his wife, Anne Webster [1867-1932], to their daughter, Nancy Laureanne Throckmorton [1899-1994], and her husband, Charles Patrick Meighen [1895-1980], to Mrs. Clara Meighen who donated the photographs to the Cornerstone Genealogical Society (144 E. Greene St., PO Box 547; Waynesburg, Pennsylvania 15370) in 2004. Shared with the Greene Connections: Greene County, Pennsylvania Photo Archives Project in 2007.
