Description

Photo of a 4th grade class assembled outside with the trees just beginning to leaf out. Most of the girls are standing in the middle ground; the boys are kneeling or lying in the foreground. This photo came from the Koning family. In general, 4th graders are about 9 years old, suggesting the children in this 1899 photo were born around 1890, making Cornelia Koning the most likely connection.
