1908 Photograph of Mary Abbie Evans upon Graduation from RSNS, perhaps Randolph State Normal School in Vermont


Graduation photograph of Mary Abbie Evans, Class of 1908 at R.S.N.S., perhaps Randolph State Normal School in Randolph, Vermont.


From brief online research, hopefully correct: corrections and additions requested

She was presumably Mary Abbie Evans (1888-1983), born 25 October 1888 at Kensington, New Hampshire, daughter of Amos Merrill Evans and Lydia D. C. (Brackett) Evans.  The 1910 Census of Rochester, New Hampshire, shows Abbie living with her parents and working as a teacher.

On 17 June 1914 at Rochester, Mary Abbie married machinist Allen Cleveland deRochemont (1888-1956), son of Clarence M. deRochemont and Ella G. (Wilson) deRochemont. Allen was also born at Kensington, New Hampshire.  Mary Abbie and Allen had at least two children.

Allen died in 1956 and Mary Abbie at Hingham, Massachusetts, in 1983; they're buried in the Kensington Cemetery in Kensington, New Hampshire.

The photograph was found with a photograph of Carrie M. (Fenner) Evans of Clinton, Massachusetts, taken by her husband Frederick Brigham Evans, presumably a relative of Mary Abbie (Evans) deRochemont.
