| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled Horace Roberts. Based on the information in the 1910 Davenport city directory and federal census it seems likely this is Dorothea (Lefurgy) Roberts, wife of Horace G. Roberts. The older girls are most likely Dorothea and Virginia. The baby would likely be Rosara. In 1910 the mother was 30, and Rosara was 1. |
