#A.
Winnie (Hukill) Hatch, wife of Frederick Lavern Hatch. She also appears in the Fitzgerald Reunion Photo as (#A)
#B.
Believed to be Amanda (Hopkins) Fuller (73 yrs old), mother of Ellen L (Fuller) Hatch(#C), and grandmother of Maude (Hatch) Sargent (#18). Another photo, believed to be Amanda, is Woman 8.
#C.
Ellen L (Fuller) Hatch (45 yrs old), the mother of Maude (Hatch) Sargent (#18), and Iva Dell Hatch (#22), and sister of Rillie (Fuller) Hutchins (#H).
#D.
Iva Dell Hatch (almost 15 yrs old), daughter of Elmer W. Hatch (deceased 1890) and Ellen (Fuller) Hatch (#C), and sister of Maude A (Hatch) Sargent (#18). .
#E.
Appears to be Phoebe (Davis) Blount, wife of Avery Blount. She matches the photo in "150 Years in The Hills and Dales" Vol. II pg. 356.
#F.
Probably Cora Blount (1872-1907), who also appears on pg. 357 of "150 Years in the Hills and Dales" Vol. II.
#H.
Previously believed to be Rillie E (Fuller) Hutchins (38 yrs old), daughter of Amanda (Hopkins) Fuller (#B), the mother of Iva Hutchins (#D), and aunt of Maude Arcelia (Hatch) Sargent (#18). HOWEVER, this woman does not appear to be 38 years of age. Almost certainly, this is Juliette (Cary) Kingsley, who was born about 1843. This meeting took place in June of 1900, making Juliette abt. 57 yrs old, which is more consistant with her appearance in this photo. Also, Juliette is standing next to her sister, Helen (Cary) Sargent (#21). Helen and Juliette lived on ajacent in Woodbridge township. The woman we had previously believed to be Juliette (#L), is, no doubt, her daughter, Mary (Kingsley) Unknown (abt. 31 yrs old). Compare the known picture of Juliette Cary (Group 29) with Woman H. Then compare with woman L.
#K.
This unknown woman appears to be the same as in this Photo
#L.
Previously believed to be Juliette Electa (Cary) Kingsley (abt. 57 yrs old), sister of Helen (Cary) Sargent (#21). We now are fairly positive that this is her daughter, Mary Kingsley, (abt. 31 yrs old). She appears to be pregnant. Certainly her mother, Juliette, would not be pregnant at 57 years of age. Compare the known picture of Juliette Cary (Group 29) with Woman H (now believed to be Juliette) and also with Woman L (now believed to be Juliette's daughter, Mary). The resemblence is remarkable.
