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!
