Photos from Louise Marr: Photo A - From left to right Louise Marr, Dot McSorley, Andy McSorley circa the 1940's. Photo B - Louise Marr pouring tea at the YW on Boyleston St. in Boston in 1946. Photo C - (L) Andy McSorley & (R) Bruce Komusin circa 1985. Photo D - Margarite Komusin in front of the old Preble house, now Mickey Mcfarlan's house. Photo E - Cabinet card photo identified in modern script handwriting on reverse as the "Prussian Lady"/Sammy Sanford's grandmother - Hanna Caroline Dorothea Russ Hadlock Haines (1803-1889), but it could actually be the "Prussian Lady's" daughter, Jane Matilda Hadlock Sanford Preble (1826-1898), Sammy Sanford's mother, the second wife of William Pitt Preble. The cabinet card is from B. H Joy, Ellsworth, ME, copyrighted 1889. The "Prussian Lady" died in 1889 at age 86 (notice the copyright date is 1889). [Did they make copies of older photos and put them on cabinet cards?] (B.K.: An anecdote relates that when Sammy Sanford passed away he froze in his cabin sitting in a chair. In order to fit him into a coffin they had to break him into 3 pieces in order to have a service at the church.) Photo F - from left to right Dot McSorley, Margarite Komusin, Louise Marr, & Andy Mc Sorley. (See also 2010.120.977 as photos may be mixed up with that group.)
