NOTES

Although the name written on the rear says "Elizabeth (Smith) Gergen", I believe this is
"Anna Maria Margarets Schmidt" due to the time frame of the photograph taken and also
mainly due to the exact photograph found of the RRS Family Tree in Ancestry.com which
give her name above. I think the person who was writing on the rear of the photograph
was in error.
