| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled Mrs. C. A. Armstrong, however the portraits are all of a young male. Charles and Maggie Armstrong are listed in Davenport in the 1910 Federal census, but sons Harry, listed as 17, and John, listed as 15 years old seem too young to be the male in these portraits. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the identity of the man in this image. |
