The Family

Mr. Harvey, son Cliff and daughter Helen with her newborn son Kamuran, 1962.

Mr. Harvey and Helens children Adem and Kamuran Tepedelen, 1970.

We got visited in the summer of 2001 by the son of Helen Harvey Proulx, Kamuran Tepedelen and Anne. He got pictures of Mr. Harvey for me, and I showed him the Harvey 80-T transmitter.

Helen Proulx Harvey tells me about the family history:

Jessie Johnston Akers was our father's mother. Her father's name was Johnston Crawford Akers. The name Crawford might indicate a Scottish connection.  Her mother's name was Mary Brower Rhodes.  I know that the name Rhodes appears in Wales, but it probably appears elsewhere in the British Isles.  There was a migration of Quakers from Wales in the 1680s to Pennsylvania.  There was also a migration of Protestant people of Scottish descent from Northern Ireland in the 1700s which came through Pennsylvania. Some stayed; most moved beyond.  The Harveys came from England in the early 1600s.

Our father's father, Clifford Dawes Harvey, was a doctor.  Clifford Dawes Harvey (CDH) was born in Maine.  He attended a medical school in Philadelphia, and met and married Jessie Akers there. That's how our father came to be born in Philadelphia.

After completing his medical degree, CDH moved his family to the Boston area and (I think) set up his practice in Jamaica Plains, a suburb (I think) of Boston. Our father had a younger brother, born in Reading, PA in 1914,  and a younger sister, born in Boston, MA in 1916.
