| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled B. F. Peek. Based on information in the 1910 census and city directories it seems likely this would be a daughter of Burton Francis Peek, vice-president of Tri City Railway Company and resident of Moline, Rock Island County, Illinois in 1910. The child is likely either Katherine (born 1900) or Alice (born 1903) daughters of B. F. Peek and his first wife, Alice Crawford Peek. See also similar images X622, X671, X727. |
