Landis family tree
The back of the left photo is labeled "my grandmother Landis when she was young. Daddy" and in a different handwriting, "Hannah P. Landis (Robinson)".
The first was written about 1951, by William Walter Landis, who died a year later. Prior to 1951, Wm. Landis had a serious car accident which may have affected his handwriting. Thus, both notes may have been from William Landis.
 
Print made about 1880 in Chicago. A copy occurs in the Hannah Landis album, the latter in better condition is used here. A similar photo occurs in the Cox family album. The next photo is of her husband. On the back of Sally's print are the words "My grandmother Landis, Daddy" written by William W. Landis about 1951. Also written in a different hand is "Hannah P. (Robinson) 1820-1901".
