| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled Mrs. M. C. Gibbon. Based on information in the 1910 Davenport City Directory and federal census it seems likely this is Grace C. (Fink) Gibbons, wife of M. Charles Gibbons. The couple was married in 1906. Grace is listed as age 24 in the census record. |
