Mrs. Wm. Thaw, Miss Carnegie (LOC)

    I love the expressions on the faces of people in these old photos. It seems the photographer always captures a moment of reality. In this one there is a sense of urgency; both ladies appear to be hurried.

    Widow of William Thaw (1818-1889). According to this site: Following the death of Eliza Burd Blair Thaw (1863), William married Mary Sibbet Copley, the daughter of Josiah Copley (who was one of the founders of Kittanning and at one time the editor of the Pittsburgh Dispatch). So this is presumably Mary Sibbet (Copley) Thaw. Her obituary is on an archived Time Magazine from 17 June 1929: Died. Mrs. Mary Sibbet Copley Thaw, 90, of Pittsburgh, widow of the late steelman William Thaw, philanthropist, charity worker, mother of Harry K. Thaw, who, in 1906, killed Architect Stanford White; at "Oak Lawn," Pittsburgh. A daughter is Countess de Perigny (Margaret Carnegie Thaw).
