Subject: [GEORGE] CARPENTER Family Photograph with connection to GEORGEFamily
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2006 07:25:07 -0800


I've "rescued" an old photograph of Maud CARPENTER which was taken at the C.
L. Howe & Son Studio in Brattleboro, Vermont. The photograph is dated
October 1888 with Maud appearing to be in her teens at that time. Based on
limited research and thanks to a CARPENTER Family researcher I know that
Maud CARPENTER was the daughter of Darwin E. & Catherine CARPENTER and
married Lorenzo Dow FRANKLIN on 28 Aug 1896 in Brattleboro, VT.
