Have any of the Highfill researchers heard of a Minerva Highfill? I have a
family photo of a young lady and on the back it says "Nervie Hafhill". I
think she might have been a Highfill and I believe she may have married a
Fields or a Yelton. This photo is old (late 1800s/early 1900s). Any
researchers know who she is?
