This is another photo from Bertha Smith Athya’s photo collection. Look closely and you’ll see Bertha wrote a number beside or near each person in the photo.
On the back of the photo, she wrote the following:
1 Violet Barber Townsend
2 Jane Moor Zimmerman
3 Mary Boden Carnahan
4 J. B. Anderson (you can see “Teacher” very lightly penciled in)
5 Betty Barber Harmon
6 Bertha Edna Smith
I found other photos of several of the girls in the collection:
Voilet Townsend and her husband |
Mary Boden |
Bertha was born in 1898 and looks to be in her early teens so I’m guessing this photo was taken about 1911 or 1912. Bertha was my husband’s grandmother. No one else in the photo are related.
