Going
through the Autograph album finds another page with the same photo of Nettie,
plus two photos of her daughters and others. If possible I would like
verification of the names in the photos.
Top Row: [Emma,
Lura and Rena are sisters]
Vivian Harvey
[Preliminary research suggests she is the daughter of Silas Marion Harvey and
Hattie Ann Studley]
Emma Stone
Lillian Wright
Bottom Row:
Lura Emma
Stone
Rena Stone
The other photo,
sisters:
Rena Stone on the
left
Alice Stone on the
right
I would love to
know what the two of them are looking at. Unfortunately that part of the photo
was torn off.
