Ruth Agnes (Henry) Small

This is my maternal grandmother, Ruth Agnes (Henry) Small.



I love how her Sr. portrait is colorized. It was like that already!

Journalling reads:

Ruth was born December 10, 1917 in Greenwich, New York to Egbert Deranzel and Agnes (Devine) Henry, the second of two daughters. She grew up in this town and graduated from the High School in June of 1936. Ruth worked as a telephone operator after her graduation.

She was the second wife of Marshall James Small. They were married October 27, 1947 in the First Congregational Church in Stamford, Connecticut by Russell M. McGowen. The couple lived on Spring Street in Cambridge, New York and had two daughters and one son together.

Ruth was a member of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, Cambridge, a member and former matron of Cambridge Valley Chapter 570, Order of the Eastern Star (OES), and a member of the Cambridge Senior Citizens.

She and Marshall were buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Salem, New York in the Small family plot.
