A Bronson Family Reunion about 1920: Some names are known but not all. If you know who some of these people are be sure to let me know! The women in the middle row from left to right that I know are Neva McDowell Binning, Unknown, Birdie Bronson Hewlett, Freda McDowell McConnell (behind), Unknown next 2 women, possibly Lizzie Bronson Bryant, Unknown, Margaret (Jennie) Bronson McDowell. The man on the far right with only half his face showing is Lawrence Binning. The rest are unknown but should be some of the husbands. The man in the center back with child is possibly Harley McConnell.

Most likely taken at the same reunion. Ella (Married to John Franklin McDowell), Birdie Isabella (married to Albert Hewlett), Mathew (never married), William Harvey (married to Esther Orfield), Lizzie (married to Fred Bryant), and Margaret Jane (Jennie) (married to George Earl McDowell, brother to John Franklin McDowell).

This picture is of several of both William Harvey Bronson and Birdie Bronson Hewlett's children. I have the names of the children but am not sure which is which in this picture. If you can help, please email me!(Stacey) The Hewlett children were Clifford, Lawrence and Lee. We believe that Clifford is on the back row far left, and Lee and Lawrence are on the second row from left in that order. The William Harvey Bronson children (in birth order) were Louie Sindia (oldest girl, center back row), Matthew Francis (Frank)(possibly far right second row), Mary Esther, Hazel Isabelle, Wilma Harriett, William Harrison (possibly far right back row), Charlotta Elien, Helen Irene, Doris Elizabeth and Birdie Margaret Marie (possibly not in picture as there are only 7 girls). I do not know which is which. There was one son, David Will, who died in infancy. Photo Contributed by Mark Hewlett.
