Class Photo, Moundsville, WV 1890s
Submitted by Carol Taylor Lanza,
granddaughter of Bernice Eliza Sims Horner
Bernice Eliza Sims Horner and her classmates in Moundsville, Marshall County,
WV. Taken somewhere between 1890 and 1895.
Bernice was born in WV, probably Marshall County, on November 4, 1883 and lived
in Moundsville until the early 1900's when she, her mother Ruth Elizabeth Jane
White Sims and her brother William Alexander Sims, moved to Washington County,
PA. They lived on the west side of town until soon after she married in 1915 to
my grandfather, Melvin Edward Horner. Her mother stayed in the same house on
Fayette St. until her death in 1935. Bernice and Melvin lived in Washington
County, mostly in Canton Twp. all their lives. They are both buried in the
Horner plot in the Claysville Cemetery, Claysville, PA.
