Having been blessed with six MORE boxes of family photos, I am trying desperately to sort, digitize, and find room for even more. Today I came across this photo:
Here's an edited version with slightly better definition:
I know the woman on the left is Great-grandmother Lizzie Pinson. The woman next to her is definitely Nancy Jane (Jennie) Page. My fragrant cousin has IDed the other two as mostly likely Carrie Barksdale and Bessie Bradford.
Obviously some kind of special event.
The most interesting thing about this photo is that it was taken on the same day as the earlier one you'll find here:

Same hair, same clothes, same people.
What's striking about the photo from the 2015 post is the woman in the middle, who is either Britta Ann Green McGuire Flynn or Mary Drucilla McGuire Edins. This photo came from my grandmother's album, in which the images were arranged chronologically from about 1919 to about 1930. This photo is from the earliest part of the album, about 1919. Britta died in 1919 at age 85 and Mary Drucilla would have been about 60 or so. The woman in the middle looks closer to 60 than 85, and so I am willing to say that this person is Mary Drucilla McGuire Edins.
Boy, Britta and Mary Dru looked a lot a like. Like twins! But then again, so does the other Britanna Green, daughter of Graphen Holt Green, who I believe is my Britta's brother. And so it goes...
