| My 2nd-great-grandmother |
In the same photo album which contained the likely wedding or engagement photo of my great-grandparents
Alvin and Lois, also had next to it the photo above. I believe this is a photo of my 2nd-great-grandmother
Elizabeth Hayden Matthews, Lois' mother, with Lois the infant in the photo. If this correct, I'd place the date around 1902. The young boy would be Grandma Lois' older brother Thomas. Elizabeth would be about 32 in the photo. She looks pretty great for having 8(!) children at the time this photo was taken, with another probably on the way. Her son George was born in April 1903 and she had 12 children in total by 1912.
