Funeral Card Friday - Aunt Emma Tharp Beard

Here is the Funeral Home Card of my great-aunt Emma Tharp Beard. I have posted her obituary here and a picture of her at 4 years old here.

It doesn't state it on the card but her funeral services were held here in Louisville with burial in Upton Cemetery, Upton, Kentucky.

Trivia Fact: Upton is a small town that is officially in both Larue and Hart Counties in Kentucky. Wonder how troublesome that is when tax and car registration time comes around?

Hope you enjoyed, glad you stopped by and please come back again ;)

Treasure Chest Thursday - Aunt Emma Tharp Beard at 4 years old

On Sunday I posted Aunt Emma Tharp Beard's obituary here. I thought I would continue with a Treasure Chest Thursday with a picture of Aunt Emma at the tender age of 4 years old. I just think she is soooo cute.

Aunt Emma was born in 1903, so this picture would have been taken in about 1907. According to the 1910 census she was living with her parents, Simon P Tharp and Rhoda W, in Priceville, Hart County, Kentucky.

Hope you enjoyed, glad you stopped by and please come back again ;)
