  1. Edwin Jarvis Hart (Sophomore) Born 16 Sep 1825 in Penobscot County, Maine to Russell Hart and Wealthy Brettun. Same family as the cabinet photo you have of Julia Jeanette Hart. He died 16 Apr 1893 in Cottage Grove, Minnesota. He is buried in Minnesota, but also has a memorial in the family cemetery in Maine. No biological children. One adopted daughter, Mary, born 1869, Minnesota, married John Zelch and died in 1953 in Hennepin, Minnesota. Thanks!

  2. Thank you for adding this information and especially for pointing out another case of the Maine-Minnesota link! I'd love to read a book about Mainers who went to Minnesota, along the lines of the book about Mainers who participated in the Gold Rush: miners, Sea Captains and the like. And, yes, I keep running into family connections in the items I research, even though they were not purchased together - so rewarding.
