Surname(s): |
ARMENT : RINEHART | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Query Text: |
My great grandmother Emma Rinehart Arment was a foundling child. The family legend goes that late one night in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania Emma was left on the doorstep of an orphanage. That she grew up, married and had a family is attested to by the very fact of my own existence. Maybe she was adopted, maybe James Walter Arment discovered her there in the orphanage and loved her immediately...If you have a legend in your family where a young woman disappeared because she was embarrassed by an unscrupulous man, one who might have given birth to Emma, named her and put the name tag on her Amish styled clothing of the era 1880 to 1895. Or--possibly two star crossed lovers made a mistake, and by taking Emma by night to her ophanage home they did the best they could for her. Maybe you could help me stop this endless romanticizing and put some facts down for Emma, long dead but never forgotten! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
