• Photos » Slide Show		Caroline Abbey Abeling and Charles F Abeling? Woman in the background appears to be Caroline Abbey Abeling, but is not confirmed. The young boy is simliar to pictures of Charles F Abeling who died as a child in 1923. If it is Charles F, the photo would be dated 1921 to 1923. Photo location is most likely the Abeling home on Maple Ave, but can anyone confirm?
  		Caroline Abbey Abeling and Charles F. Abeling Caroline and the boy appears to be Charles F. Abeling who died in 1923, dating the picture to 1919 to 1923. Location is unknown.
  		WR Abeling Sr holding Charles F. Abeling, Robert William Abeling on the right. Considering Charles F Abeling was born 1918 and died in 1923, the photo's estimated date would be 1920 or 1921. Location appears to be the back of the Abeling home on Maple Ave, as I was told that there used to be stairs that went from directly to the second floor from back yard.
  		Frances Kilinski Abeling, Robert William Abeling, and Charles F. Abeling We believe the location is 112 Guy Park Ave, in Amsterdam, NY - taken about 1918-1920. The 1920 Amsterdam Directory does confirm that Frederick and Frances Abeling lived at 112 Guy Park Ave. Robert William Abeling recalls visiting this location with his Grandma Carrie and he remembers that Fred & Frances lived in brick house on Guy Park Ave.
  		Katherine Duffy Abeling with son Charles Abeling. One of Katherine's sisters with Robert W Abeling. Left: Katherine Duffy Abeling holding Charles F Abeling Right: One of Katherine's sisters, most likely Loretta, holding Robert W Abeling. Estimated date of photo is 1918. Robert Abeling was born in March of 1916 and its very possible that he is two or at the most 3 in this photo. His younger brother, Charles was born in 1918 - and appears to be less than 1 year old. This would place the photo's date at 1918, and would also likely place the location of the photo in Amsterdam, New York, where Lester and Katherine lived at the time.
