Comments: Frances L Duvall (Nee: Billings) | Oberlin OH | 1851-1900 | Comments: I've recovered an old photograph album from the late 1800's including faculty and students from Oberlin College which includes a photograph of Frances BILLINGS DUVALL. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's or 1890's with Frances likely in her 20's at the time it was taken. Most of the photographs, like this one was taken by the Pfeifer Studio from Columbus, OH who probably came to take all the photographs at the Oberlin campus. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Frances and her family:
Frances L. BILLINGS was b. Aug 1868 in Randolph, NY to parents Justice or Justus Warren BILLINGS (1816-1887) and Jane Permelia THOMPSON (1829-1877). Frances had one full sibling, a brother Justice W. BILLINGS and 8 half siblings from her mother’s previous marriage including Hermas or Hermes or Herron Irving; Ella Augusta “Ellen”; Arthur William; Jennie; Minnie; Frederick; Edith; and Alice Estelle BURT, all born between 1847 and 1863 and 5 half siblings from her father’s previous marriage including Cynthia J.; May Virginia; Mary; Deette “Etta” J.; and Ella Viola BILLINGS, all born between 1843 and 1854.
Frances married Oliver Harvey DUVALL (1865-1929) in 1896 and they had one daughter, Florence Elizabeth DUVALL (1904-1971). After her husband died she married Cyrus G. BALDWIN. Frances died in 1956 in California and is buried in the Oak Park Cemetery in Claremont, CA.
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 me.
Thanks,
Shelley
