Right photo: Emeline Cox, mother of Alice Louise (Cox) Landis.
On the back is written: "Grandma Cox who lived & died in Sandwich,
Ill. My mothers mother. I was a small boy when she died. She would have
been a great, great grandmother to Tomie, Patie, & Bryant McFarland,
also Carol Jean & Suzie Illian.
Dad Landis 11-4-51" Photo made in Sandwich, Ill. by Chas. Orr,
machine dated 1881. The hand writing is by William W. Landis, who
probably wrote on all of Sally's photos at the same time, but only this
one is precisely dated. |
