Holmes S &Clark was the photographer at El Dorado Springs Mo
Leona Clinton
Prop of Ethel C. Lowry
This Cabinet Card has a pink back. From 1880 to 1890 different colors were sometimes used for the face and back of the mounted photos.
Thanks for stopping by.
Update from Iggy:
I think the Ethel referred to might be Ethel C[linton?] Lowry, the daughter of Dane Clinton. She was born in Aug, 1882 in Missouri and moved with her family to Los Angeles, CA sometime before 1900. I am not sure how she might be related to Leona - the missing 1890 US Census left a big hole here. Leona might have been an older sister. Leona does not appear with the Dane Clinton family in 1900. Ethel married Homer T Lowry and lived in the San Diego area.
Leona Clinton might be Leona Gibb (4 Jun 1869 in Missouri - 4 Oct 1943 in Alameda), the wife of James H Gibb (1851 to < 1930). It appears James was her second husband. She married George M Bennett in 1889 and is shown divorced in 1910.
The Bennet's had a daughter Bessie B Eib [later Betty B Gibb] (abt 1892) shown as widowed in 1920.

Ah, one mystery cleared. The photographer studio is "Holmes & Clark".

ReplyDeleteThe Bennet's had a daughter Bessie B Eib [later Betty B Gibb] (abt 1892) shown as widowed in 1920. This is one convoluted path...
Could Leona have been Ethel's mother and Dane's wife?
