It has been a while since I last posted a message regarding our search for KATHERINE ANN PIPER DURHAM.
A few years ago, my husband learned of Katherine Ann, who would be his half sister, if still living. Her mother was KATHERINE ANN PFEFFERLE who was first wife to my husband's father. The first wife died in 1931. Katherine the daughter would have been born about 1926.
In 1998, we came into possession of a photo album with over 200 photos of the Pfefferle family. We sincerely wish to see to it that either Katherine Piper Durham or one of her descendants receive this album. There was a photo of Katherine with her husband identified as Ray Durham and a young boy identified as their son named Mike. They were living in Carmel, Indiana at the time.
We wrote to 18 different Michael Durhams with no luck. No record of a Katherine Ann Durham, nee Piper. Katherine was raised by her Aunt Etta (Henrietta Pfefferle Flanagan) in Indiana.
The two Pfefferle family members we found do not know what became of Katherine. They remembered her mother with love and fondness, and with sadness at her death in 1931.
It is not my husband's desire to disrupt anyone's life, nor to perhaps open any "wounds" that may or may not exist. If Katherine Ann Piper Durham is still living, he would, of course, like to meet her or talk to her, or correspond with her. However, if this is not to be, perhaps she could use an intermediary to claim the album that shows her mother's family.
thanks for reading my message.
