| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled "Dr. Benadom". The image is very similar to X328 and X329 and appears to have been taken at the same time. William A. Benadom first appears in the Davenport city directory in 1902-1903. In 1905 he married his third wife, Sadie. It is probable that this photograph is of William and Sadie Benadom. |
