Comments: Ira Welch (Nee: ) | Oskaloosa IA | 1851-1900 | Comments: I have an old studio photograph of Ira WELCH which was take at the Smith Studio in Oskaloosa, IA sometime in the 1890's. Ira appears to be in his 20's at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Ira and his family:
Ira Lyons WELCH was b. 24 or 25 Jun 1869 in Eddyville, IA to parents Jason Ritchie WELCH (1840-1925) and Rebecca Ann CALDWELL (1844-1911) who were married 6 May 1862 in Harrison, OH. Ira had three siblings including Anna Jenette or Jeanette or Jeanetta “Nettie” WELCH MOORE (1863-1937); J. WELCH (b. 1869); and Minnie Dell WELCH TREAT (1872-1967). Ira married Eva Frances JONES (1891-1942) on 6 Jun 1901 in Cass Co., IA and they had 5 children including Baby Girl; Howard Jason; James Richard; Betty Lorene; and Armelda Caroline WELCH, all born between 1908 and 1920. Ira died 23 Jun 1944 or 25 Jul 1944 in Atlantic, IA and is buried in the Atlantic Cemetery in that city.
I am hoping to get this treasure to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley
