Page Title

Nothing is written on the photo. According to the Patton Genealogy, Elias F. Patton married Margaret Florence Carter in 1885 and they had the following children: Irene, Hazel, Vinton, Orville, Onard, Leo E., Elias F. (Lyle), Carter M., Donald E., and Eileen F. The last was born in April 1909 so this photo was likely taken shortly after that. Vinton and Orville died young so the other 8 children are likely those in the photo with their parents. The author of the Patton Genealogy was married to Irene Patton.
