- [S1056] Cherry Tharp [e-mail address], Attached are the photos given to me by my Aunt Gladys Teets Welch, daughter of Cora Dellinger Teets and Jacob Jackson Teets. Some of the identifications on your photo album do not agree with what she told me. I am certain that there needs to be a correction on the one with my grandparents on it who are incorrectly identified as Charles and Elizabeth Baker in the photo album numbered photo. I believe the group photos were taken at the Teets home place in Lost River, WVA, but I do not know if the house is still there or where exactly it was. I will continue to look for it.
My aunt identified the children of Jacob J. Teets and Mary Elizabeth See Teets in their photo (attached) as
First row left to right:
Belle Teets Wilkins; “Kate” Teets (who your album calls Rachel Catherine Teets); the father Jacob J. Teets; the mother Mary Elizabeth [See] Teets; and Hattie Teets Bradfield.
Back row left to right:
Robert Teets; Moses Teets; Jacob Jackson Teets (my grandfather); John G. Teets; Branson Teets; and Charles Teets.
I am not as certain on the photo with the 9 “in-laws” added, but I know my grandparents are misidentified, could it be corrected on your website please?
#1 – correctly identified as Rachel Catherine “Katie” Teets
#2 her husband, Noah Granville Combs
#3 my grandmother, Cora Ann Dellinger Teets
#4 my grandfather, Jacob Jackson Teets
#5 Jessie M. Teets, wife of Moses
#6 Moses P. Teets
#7 Ethel Clem Teets (from Mathias, WVA and wife of Branson)
#8 Branson Teets
#9 Charles Teets
#10 probably Della Combs wife of Robert (?)
#11 Robert Teets
#12 Quincy Bradfield, husband of Hattie
#13 Elizabeth Baker Teets, wife of Charles (?) (but NOT Cora Dellinger)
#14 Jacob J. Teets, father (I do not know if the J stands for Jackson, the same as my grandfather…?)
#15 Mary Elizabeth [See] Teets, mother
#16 Hattie Teets Bradfield
#17 Herbert Wilkins, husband of Belle Teets
#18 Belle Teets Wilkins
#19, Mildred “Millie” Teets, wife of John
#20 John Guile Teets
The other photo has all of the grandchildren included. My aunt Gladys is sitting on her mother’s lap (Cora Dellinger Teets) and my grandfather, Jacob Jackson Teets, is holding her older sister Thelma. My Aunt Gladys was born April 28, 1920 and she appears to be a few months old, so I’m thinking the photos were taken in the early fall of 1920. Her older brother, my uncle Harold, should be in the photo, but I don’t know which child he is. He was born January 11, 1914 so he should have been about 6 ½ years old in the photo. I have no idea the names of the other children in the photo.
The photo of Rachel Dellinger, Cora’s mother, shows her holding Gladys’ younger brother, Ralph Teets. He was born near Winchester, VA. (They lived in Stephens City, VA at the time of his birth. He was born March 8, 1929 and died July 30, 1959 with a heart condition due to rheumatic fever as a child. He never married and did not have children.
The other photo is of my father Cecil Jackson Teets (probably a school photo in Stephens City VA.) He was born in Lost River, WVA on Aug. 3, 1922 and died August 22, 1986 in Harrisonburg, VA. of a heart attack. He married Helen Marie Silman of Winchester on Aug. 21, 1948. They were married at the home of his sister Thelma Swadley and brother-in-law John Swadley in Hagerstown, MD. My mother, Helen Teets is still living in Harrisonburg, VA. There are 2 daughters and 3 grandsons from their marriage. Cecil Teets served in the Navy during WW II on a LST in the Pacific Ocean Campaign.
Thank you for the information your website has provided. It clarified several things for me in the photo, including my great grandmother’s maiden name [See]. I recently visited the cemetery near Lost River, WVA. (in Mathias, WVA) where she and Jacob J. Teets are buried (along with other relatives) and intend to go back to do some more research.
I will send updated photos in the future – one of Ralph and Gladys, along with photos of my father, Cecil Jackson Teets. (I have not found any photos of his brother Harold or his sister Thelma.) All of his siblings have died.

- [S1056] Cherry Tharp [e-mail address], Attached are the photos given to me by my Aunt Gladys Teets Welch, daughter of Cora Dellinger Teets and Jacob Jackson Teets. Some of the identifications on your photo album do not agree with what she told me. I am certain that there needs to be a correction on the one with my grandparents on it who are incorrectly identified as Charles and Elizabeth Baker in the photo album numbered photo. I believe the group photos were taken at the Teets home place in Lost River, WVA, but I do not know if the house is still there or where exactly it was. I will continue to look for it.
My aunt identified the children of Jacob J. Teets and Mary Elizabeth See Teets in their photo (attached) as
First row left to right:
Belle Teets Wilkins; “Kate” Teets (who your album calls Rachel Catherine Teets); the father Jacob J. Teets; the mother Mary Elizabeth [See] Teets; and Hattie Teets Bradfield.
Back row left to right:
Robert Teets; Moses Teets; Jacob Jackson Teets (my grandfather); John G. Teets; Branson Teets; and Charles Teets.
I am not as certain on the photo with the 9 “in-laws” added, but I know my grandparents are misidentified, could it be corrected on your website please?
#1 – correctly identified as Rachel Catherine “Katie” Teets
#2 her husband, Noah Granville Combs
#3 my grandmother, Cora Ann Dellinger Teets
#4 my grandfather, Jacob Jackson Teets
#5 Jessie M. Teets, wife of Moses
#6 Moses P. Teets
#7 Ethel Clem Teets (from Mathias, WVA and wife of Branson)
#8 Branson Teets
#9 Charles Teets
#10 probably Della Combs wife of Robert (?)
#11 Robert Teets
#12 Quincy Bradfield, husband of Hattie
#13 Elizabeth Baker Teets, wife of Charles (?) (but NOT Cora Dellinger)
#14 Jacob J. Teets, father (I do not know if the J stands for Jackson, the same as my grandfather…?)
#15 Mary Elizabeth [See] Teets, mother
#16 Hattie Teets Bradfield
#17 Herbert Wilkins, husband of Belle Teets
#18 Belle Teets Wilkins
#19, Mildred “Millie” Teets, wife of John
#20 John Guile Teets
The other photo has all of the grandchildren included. My aunt Gladys is sitting on her mother’s lap (Cora Dellinger Teets) and my grandfather, Jacob Jackson Teets, is holding her older sister Thelma. My Aunt Gladys was born April 28, 1920 and she appears to be a few months old, so I’m thinking the photos were taken in the early fall of 1920. Her older brother, my uncle Harold, should be in the photo, but I don’t know which child he is. He was born January 11, 1914 so he should have been about 6 ½ years old in the photo. I have no idea the names of the other children in the photo.
The photo of Rachel Dellinger, Cora’s mother, shows her holding Gladys’ younger brother, Ralph Teets. He was born near Winchester, VA. (They lived in Stephens City, VA at the time of his birth. He was born March 8, 1929 and died July 30, 1959 with a heart condition due to rheumatic fever as a child. He never married and did not have children.
The other photo is of my father Cecil Jackson Teets (probably a school photo in Stephens City VA.) He was born in Lost River, WVA on Aug. 3, 1922 and died August 22, 1986 in Harrisonburg, VA. of a heart attack. He married Helen Marie Silman of Winchester on Aug. 21, 1948. They were married at the home of his sister Thelma Swadley and brother-in-law John Swadley in Hagerstown, MD. My mother, Helen Teets is still living in Harrisonburg, VA. There are 2 daughters and 3 grandsons from their marriage. Cecil Teets served in the Navy during WW II on a LST in the Pacific Ocean Campaign.
Thank you for the information your website has provided. It clarified several things for me in the photo, including my great grandmother’s maiden name [See]. I recently visited the cemetery near Lost River, WVA. (in Mathias, WVA) where she and Jacob J. Teets are buried (along with other relatives) and intend to go back to do some more research.
I will send updated photos in the future – one of Ralph and Gladys, along with photos of my father, Cecil Jackson Teets. (I have not found any photos of his brother Harold or his sister Thelma.) All of his siblings have died.
