Based on information in Davenport city directories, the 1900 census, county records and local newspapers it seems likely this is Anna Denkmann Davis, born 1890, and Helen Adelaide Davis, born 1893, daughters of Thomas B. and Appolonia A. (Denkmann) Davis. For other images of this Davis family see also: X277, X285, X294, X294a-f, X306a&b, X449, X800, X820, X1040, X1084, 10475, 11713, 17569 |
