Notes

From the photograph album of Mrs. Caroline Latham Mitchell (1815-1896), which was given to "cousin" Lizzie C. Brown (1853-1936, granddaughter of Lucy Avery Mitchell) during a visit to Groton in August 1907. The album was passed down through several generations of the family before it was donated to the Groton Public Library in October 2026.
