Crescent Springs Presbyterian Church. Photo taken
sometime after the belfry was dedicated in 1938. The Womens Auxillary
went to the Church Session in 1933 to seek permission to add a belfry
to the Church to house the bell. The permission was given, and for the
next five years the women of the Church worked to raise the $489.98
that was needed to erect the belfry.

These Photos have had an interesting journey.
They were taken by Weaver Bros in Covington, Kenton County Kentucky, probably
before 1900. The originals were purchased by an unnamed woman in a box
of junk at a rummage sale in the State of Washington. Penciled on the
back of one of the photos was, "Joe Finnell and Sam Finnell".
Penciled on the back of the other photo was, " send to Mrs Finnell".
The woman who purchased the photos located the Finnell Family Website
on the Internet that is maintained by Arthur Louis Finnell. Arthur forwarded
copies of the photos to several Finnell cousins for a possible ID. Thus,
it is thought that the photos are of Joseph C. Finnell Sr. born 4 Mar
1854, Covington, KY, died 14 Feb 1911, Cincinnati, OH, and his sons Joseph
C. Finnell Jr. born June 1885, Covington, KY and Samuel C. Finnell born
July 1888, Covington, KY. Joseph C. Finnell Sr. married Mamie H. Cochran
in 1883 at the home of her parents on Garrard Steet in Covington, KY.
In 1882 Joseph C. Finnell Sr. was appointed United States Clerk and Commissioner,
with his office in Covington, and served for 29 years. He is buried at
Highland Cemetery, and was the son of John W. Finnell, Adjutant General
of the State of Kentucky in 1861. His mother was Elizabeth Tureman Finnell.
