Subject: Dr. JD Nisbet or Nesbitt

I am trying to find the names of my greatgrands on my mother's side. My grandmothers name was Minnie Lee Nesbitt. She was born in SC, USA around 1896 & died in Greenville, SC in 1972.I think she had 2 brothers, Dr. Charles Nesbitt. He graduated from Wofford College & became a professor there.What is confusing is that I have an envelope dating 1914 to a Dr. JD Nisbet.I know they are related. The letter was from Davidson College in NC & mailed to JD in New York. I do not know if the college was in error sp his last name or if they were correct and somehow these 2 possibly brothers had a diff sp of their last name.I also know that my mother was related to a Blanche Nesbitt Davis.According to a 1920 census Blanche was living with Charlie &his wife and I think it might have been his niece by the ages of everyone.If this sounds familiar to anyone, please email me. Maybe we can help each other out. Thanks!CR in TX

The stones from the 1830's are hard to read.

Subject: Girl in the Red Velvet Swing painting

Any information on painting purchased at an auction in Hershey or Lancaster area in the late 1950's. It is refered to as "Girl in the Red Velvet Swing" in appraisal document from York. Pa in 1970's. It is in pastel, about 23" (round). Beautiful young girl with wide brimmed hat, long strawberry blonde hair in what I call ringlet ( tubular ?) curls hanging over her shoulders and chest. Signed "Nesb_t", w/o date. My father Wm C RICKRODE bought it at an estate auction; in 1957 +/-. It was listed in the auction as "Girl in Red Velvet Swing". My father was speaking to someone from the auction house about it and I remember hearing about the paiting belonging a family member of the eatate.
Mainly interested in history, previous ownership, name of artist........
