NotesThe original negative envelope is labeled Mrs. Marshall. Although nothing definitive was located on this subject, the series of X713 images were labeled W. H. Marshall and had the name Catherine Marshal written along the edge of the negs. The little girl in X713 is the same child in this series, X760c. There is likely some connection but it has not been determined.
