Stories Of The Winchendon Children

Here are many of the children (and a few adults) whose descendants I have contacted, or about whom I have found significant information. All of the children on this page were photographed in Winchendon, Massachusetts. Click on each photo to see an enlarged photo and the full captions. The captions directly under each photo are my words. Below those, I have added Hine's own telling descriptions (in italics), as published by the Library of Congress or other sources. You will note examples of where my research has resulted in name corrections, or in the discovery of the names of persons only partially identified, or not indentified at all by Hine. In most cases, I have posted my full story (often including family photos) of the person or persons in the photo. For others, I am still gathering information for the story. These pages will be updated frequently.
