Photograph & Calling Card of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Sandford Hahn of Warren, Maine


Photograph and calling card of Maurice Sandford Hahn and Gertrude M. (Stoddard) Hahn of Warren, Maine.


The reverse of the card indicates that it was meant to be given to Mrs. Edgar Stoddard.   Mrs. Edgar Stoddard was Helen (Merrill) Stoddard, mother of Gertrude M. (Stoddard) Hahn.

Was the reference to "one Hooverizer" related to President Herbert Hoover or to a piece of farm equipment?


From brief online research, hopefully correct - corrections and additions requested"

Maurice Sandford Hahn was born at Warren, Maine, on June 10, 1886, the son of Dexter B. Hahn and Jane M. (Starrett) Hahn.

On October 18, 1910 at Colebrook, New Hampshire, or at Cold Brook at Hermon, Maine - there are records for each - Maurice married Gertrude M. Stoddard, daughter of Edgar Stoddard and Helen (Merrill) Stoddard.  Maurice and Gertrude lived at Warren, Maine.  Maurice was a barber at Warren, as evidenced by the reference cited below from www.warrenmaine.org.

In 1957 at Lisbon Falls, Maine, Maurice married Mamie Augusta (Littlefield) Morgan Blethen Beal.  He died in 1964.  I lost track of Gertrude M. (Stoddard) Hahn after the 1940 Census.

  1. I have a sepia portrait photograph of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice S. Hahn, which I purchased a few years back at an antique shop here in Central Maine. May I send a copy of it to you?
