Mustaches of our Fathers

In researching for other posts I have found that some of my ancestors had some pretty impressive mustaches. Here are a few of them in a lighthearted look at our ancestors. All of these are groups of father and sons.

Mustached Slade Ancestors
Here we have the some of the Slade ancestors who all seem to have their own style. From Abram's duster to Tom's pencil.  I find it interesting that they all had mustaches but no beards.They each have their own style.
How are we related: Henry is Abram's Father and Abram is Thomas' father. Thomas was married to Dorothy Haws.

Mustached Wiltbank Ancestors
Spencer Wiltbank
Ellis Whitney Wiltbank
Next we have the Wiltbank men. Spencer Watson has a really nice horseshoe mustache going on. Ellis Whitney's is neatly trimmed to not cover his lip. Once again mustaches but no beards.
How are we related: Spencer was the father of Ellis Whitney who was the father of William Ellis "Pacer" who was the father of Atella Wiltbank Haws




Mustached Crosby Ancestors
Finally we have the Crosby ancestors. I don't know what to say about Jesse Wentworth's mustache. George Henry has a very noticeable mustache when he was young and then when he was older the mustach was very different and blends in with his beard.
How are we related: Jesse Wentworth is George Henry's father and George Henry is Sarah Amelia's father and Sarah Amelia is the mother of Atella Wiltbank Haws.

We definitely have some awesome ancestors all with a sense of style. If anyone has other pictures of ancestors with great mustaches please send them to me. Also if anyone has better digital versions of any of these I would greatly appreciate receiving any of them. Also if I have incorrectly identifies anyone I would also appreciate knowing that.
