This picture shows my great
grandmother, Mary Elizabeth (Libbie) Dunton, with her sister and
several cousins. From left to right the "girls" are Polly (referred
to as Aunt Polly Folts in other pics), Mary Elizabeth Dunton (my
great grandmother), Thirza (Snyder, McKimm, Delano), Mina (Sometimes
called Mina Pickel and then Mina Smith. She lived with the family
when they were in Kewaskum, but didn't move with Thomas to Clark
County. Later records suggest she married and settled in Iowa.) and
Della (we think Reynolds - the Michigan connection) She and her
husband also lived for a while in Kewaskum. Mary Elizabeth died in
1920. I think the picture was probably taken in the early 1900's.
Place? - either Campbellsport, my dad's hometown near Kewaskum, or
it could have been taken in Clark County perhaps in the town of
Humbird which is where they seemed to congregate. My grandmother
and her mother often traveled there by train. I like this picture.
It's full of pioneer spirit!
