Susanna Kinch Zentmyer, early image
We found this image on eBay and bought it because on the reverse side was stamped 'R.A. Zentmyer P.M., Ventland, Clearfield Co., Pa.' We assumed 'P.M.' meant Postmaster, and in fact Ventland was a small town and post office on the Pennsylvania Railroad, called 'Chesterfield' by the PRR. The town was abandoned in 1911.
The image turned out to be of Robert Anderson Zentmyer's mother, Susanna Kinch Zentmyer, so a lucky find indeed. The photographer, Luther B. Kline, worked in Huntingdon from the mid 1860s until his death in 1901.
