Wordless Wednesday – Great Grandpa Constantine Breneman & Dolly
by Sherry Stocking Kline

A while back I posted photographs of my Great-Grandpa Constantine Breneman and his beautiful buggy horse. Being a horse crazy girl growing up, oh how I wanted to know that horse’s name.
Constantine "Tom" Breneman & Dolly
It was evident that Great-grandpa was proud of her.
Yes, her! This past weekend we had a small family gathering on the Breneman side complete with stacks of photographs, family trees, and research books. We had a great time exchanging information and stories and then lo and behold my cousin had the above photograph with the caption, “Constantine Breneman and Dolly. Isn’t she a beauty?!
And as I write this, I think “Oh, dear, do you suppose Dolly is the dog underneath the horse??”
I hope not. And surely, if the dog was the focus of the photograph, Great-Grandpa Breneman would have been shown seated with it instead!

Sherry,
You have such a wonderful collection of horse pictures. Thanks for sharing with us. Dolly looks like she is pretty proud of herself, so that makes two of them.
Thanks, Joan! Most of the older photographs you see are not mine, but thanks to a great scanner, I have good copies of these priceless treasures that I can share with others on-line! The tombstone photographs, so far, are all mine, and I have some taken with my 35 mm some years back that I need to scan and share here. OR, go take new digital ones! Love your blog, Joan!
