These appear to be the Wilcox children of William H.H. Wilcox and Martha Frances Price. The older boy in the back would be Jessie Wilcox, the girl at right would be Mabel Wilcox Colborn (mother of Janice Colborn Koehler and her sisters), the boy at left would be Foster Wilcox.
Another photo of them young was dated around 1888, so this would be likely be around 1890. Copy received from Lisa DePuy Edwards (granddaughter of Ruth Colborn DePuy) |
