Gusta (Banks) Roller had this photo, too, and she named the above people as being pictured. Below was another copy which came to me from a Barry County researcher. She was interested in the Fine family and so this photo came to her through those connections. The red marks are to help locate the people that she is talking about in the below message that she sent me.
This message came with the
photo: My Mother's cousin, Claude Fine sent me the photo to copy several
years ago. We were able to identify Fine family from marks on the original.
On the very left side is an elderly gentleman we believe to be Joseph M.
Fine, he looks like this in other family photos. We believe the two young
ladies next to him are Alma and Calista Fine. Over to the right towards the
back are two young men-in front of them is a gentleman holding his
hat, we think for sure this is Frank and one of the other Fine boys -
possibly could be David or William. I do not know if John Fine and
family are in the photo or not. They were members at one time. He is
my Great grandfather, his eldest child Nellie my Grandmother. Barbara
