With the spectacular hat, this looks more like a photo celebrating a big accomplishment, not a mourning photo.

(I agree on the rest though, she certainly looks well-to-do and the glasses are a fantastic clue. )roisindubh211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751220465315554061.post-80978617488491070192015-02-17T04:24:30.376-08:002015-02-17T04:24:30.376-08:00Great work!

Winchester was listed as her residence and Aaron Taylor as her parent/guardian. Records show she married Charles Anderson Oct 24, 1898, possibly in Madison County. She either was a student or graduated from State Normal, Frankfort KY in 1897. (Now KY State Univ); This info per Berea Connections by Richard Sears and is available online and at Berea College Special Collections & Archives.

That, my sister, was inspired.<br /><br />There are a number of widows living next or near to Rachel. I wonder if there was a tragedy that affected the community? If so, there may be a newspaper accounting that may offer more clues.<br /><br />Peace & Blessings,<br />"Guided by the Ancestors"NAACP Santa Fehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13703440924595509958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751220465315554061.post-19064489663299674462014-01-06T20:12:58.938-08:002014-01-06T20:12:58.938-08:00Great detective work.
