Rushmer Guy Curtis

This is a photo of one of the children in the third generation of our Curtis family. The child's name is Rushmer Guy Curtis, the oldest child of William Rushmer Curtis and Ella May Canfield.

Rushmer Guy Curtis was born on 31 December 1890 in Ogden, Weber Co., Utah. He died at 86 years of age, on 1 July 1977 in Escondido, San Diego Co., California and was bured on 7 July 1977 in Escondido.

This photograph was the twelfth one in the antique Curtis family album. The original owner of the album was  Rushmer Guy's aunt, Mary Lavantia Curtis. The photo was taken in Ogden, Utah by the Newcomb Brothers at Wright Block located on Washington Ave.

Rushmer Guy was married twice (Teresa Morrice and Annie Elizabeth Gather Bowerman). Originally we only knew of one child, a son named Clinton. But a descendant of Rushmer Guy Curtis saw this blog post and added a comment stating that there four children in the family.
