Description

Thomas Jefferson Morris [1847-1929] and his wife, Caroline Lee (Cain) Morris [1851-1937]. There is no caption on this image, but a very similar image (item # MORS-AN001-0007) includes the handwritten inscription, "Thomas Jefferson Morris. Wife Caroline Lee [Morris]. They had 8 children. Edith is youngest. / Badge signifies membership in I.O.O.F. Lodge over 50 years. He was proud of it." The date "Nov. 63" on the front-left margin likely refers to date this print was developed, as opposed to the date the image was taken. Also see item # MORS-AN001-0007. Original, candid.
