Unknown Pidgeon Family Photos - This photo was taken by F. J. Weber & Bros. Photographers - Erie, Penn. -

William Pidgeon, Sr. & Emily went first to Erie, PA when they immigrated to this country.  They had a daughter, Sarah Ann Pidgeon, b. 1871, Devon, England and died 1880, buried in Rochester, NY; I can only assume this is Sarah; Wm. Pidgeon, Jr. was born in 1874, when Sarah was 3 so he could be the infant in these photos.

I believe two of the ladies in the automobile are Aunt Maggie Pidgeon (George Pidgeon's widow) and Emily Baker Pidgeon - the other one could be Emily Pidgeon Deline and one of her daughters.

George Pidgeon

George Pidgeon's wife, Margaret "Maggie" & George B. Pidgeon (?) who was born in 1873 and died in 1894.

I believe George Pidgeon married Jane Hall before leaving England for America in 1869.  Her father was William Hall.  I do not know what happened to her but he remarried to Margaret at some point and they had one son that I know of George B. Pidgeon (See Obituary Pages)  See Correspondence page - there is a mention of Maggie in a letter written by William Pidgeon, Sr. after George's death
