James Costlow (1822-1904)
This appears to be the funeral card of James Costlow (1822-1904). James was Ida's maternal grandfather, making him my 3rd great grandfather.

Unidentified

Possibly David Costlow (1828-1916)
There are a couple of David Costlow's on Ida's side of the family (and maybe more). Leading contenders are Ida's maternal uncle David Costlow (1853-1924) as well as her maternal great uncle David Costlow (1828-1916).

"Ellen Malzi and Family"
As labeled this is "Ellen Malzi and Family." Ellen (George) Malzi was the daughter of Rachel Costlow (1844-1920) and John George (1841-1904). Rachel was a sister of Ida's mother, Mary (Costlow) Rhoads (1858-1947). Ellen would be my 1st cousin 3x removed and a 1st cousin of Ida's.


John Rhoads (1886-1922) left
As labelled: "John Rhoads and Wolf". You'll notice on the back (next photo) Ida labelled it more specifically as John Rhoads, her brother, and Mr. Wolf. It is unclear who Mr. Wolf is. John Rhoads (1886-1922) was about the 6th child of Ida's parents, John Rhoads (1852-1922) and Mary (Costlow) Rhoads (1858-1947).

Possibly Costlows


Della Rhoads Stevenson (1880-1964)
Della (1880-1964) was Ida's 20 year older sister. She married a John Stevenson (1878-1957).

Mary Rhoads (1893-1989) and Amanda Rhoads Campbell (1895-1988)
These are two of Ida's older sisters. On the left is Mary Rhoads (1893-1989). On the right is Amanda Alice (Rhoads) Campbell (1895-1988). She married John Edward Campbell (1892-1959) on January 22, 1913 in Edinburg, Cambria, PA.

Steve George (1878-1958)
Son of Rachel Costlow (Ida's maternal aunt) and John George (1841-1904). He is also the brother of Ellen (George) Malzi that you saw in photo Ida 3a. Ida’s first cousin.

Possibly Clara Rachel Miles Sears (1875-1935)
This might be Ida’s mother in law as a young woman.


"Uncle David Costlow" and Rhinard Rhoads (1833-1920)
Rhinard was Ida’s paternal grandfather.

Thomas Costlow (1865-1943)
"Uncle Tom Costlow" is most likely Ida's maternal uncle Thomas Costlow (1865-1943). He married an Alice Plummer and they had 6 children. There are a couple of other Thomas Costlows in the family, but given the apparent age of the man and the photograph (and reference to "Uncle") this one seems to be the best bet.

Rhoads Brothers and Sisters
I am guessing these are Ida's oldest sibling, though it is hard to tell who is who. Ida's oldest sibling was James Rhoads (1880-??). Ida was the last of 13 or 14 of the Rhoads children born (in 1900). The oldest 5 would have 3 boys and 2 girls, which would fit the makeup of this photo.

Eva Paul Rhoads (1832-1911)
Ida’s paternal grandmother.

Unidentified

Jerry Campbell

Amanda Rhoads Hubert (1862-1903)
Ida’s paternal aunt.


"Uncle Pete and Aunt Tillie Costlow"
Possibly Ida’s maternal uncle Peter Christopher Costlow (1846-1905) and his wife Matilda Topper Costlow (1850-19350.

Unidentified
It was determined that Ida incorrectly labelled this as “Mary Adams and Family”.

"Uncle Orlando Rhoads and Family"
Orlando Rhoads (1872-1958) is the brother of Ida's father, making him her 1st. cousin. I don't have names for his wife and children pictured with him here.

Ida’s paternal aunt, married to George Washington Seese (1849-1923).

"Uncle Ed and Maryann Rukamp"


Kring Brothers and Clarence Otto Rhoads (1893-1964)
Clarence Otto Rhoads (1893-1964) was the son of George Washington Rhoads (1868-1929), Ida's paternal uncle, and Jennie (Kring) Rhoads (1871-1949), her aunt.
The other other boys are likely brothers, all Krings. I believe they were the sons of Elizabeth (Rhoads) Kring (1866-1947) and Lewis Kring (1862-1936).
Three of the Rhoads siblings (Ida's father's siblings) married 3 Kring siblings.
All the boys in this picture are 1st cousins with each other as well as with Ida.

"Steve and Lizzie George"
Ida’s 1st cousin and his wife.

Clara Rachel Miles (1875-1934)
Ida’s mother in law.


The Rhoads Farm
If you look closely, that appears to be Eva (Paul) Rhoads (1832-1911) seated in the rocking chair on the porch. She was Ida's grandmother, my 3rd great grandmother. With some worked we could probably identify the others on the porch.


"Rhoads Costlow Topper group"
Likely a group of 1st cousins.


The Rhoads Family
This appears to be the fullest family picture of Ida's family. That appears to be her parents, Mary Margaret (Costlow) Rhoads (1858-1947) and John Rhoads (1852-1919) seated in front.
Is that Ida front and center? If so, I would place the date of this photo at about 1905-1910.
With some work the other Rhoads siblings could probably be identified.
There are some markings on the back but they are hard to read.


Bertha Pinyard
Bertha was born a Walsh to Ella (Rhoads) (1887-1919) and Anthony Walsh (1880-1964). You saw them in Ida Misc 4. Ella was Ida's older sister so Bertha would have been Ida's niece.
