Glass plate negative of an unknown woman with baby in a deciduous forest, 1887

 Item — Box 3: [Barcode: 31197239252221], item: 29
Identifier: MSS 9008 Item 29
Scope and Contents

Unknown woman sitting with baby in deciduous forest. This could be in the Gardiner area, below Sepulcher Mountain somewhere near Rainbow Lakes. She looks like Ella Hoppe and the baby looks like Paul Hoppe. If those identifications are correct, this was Walter Hoppe's family. I can't be positive because the woman is in profile here rather than full facial, but I think it is Ella Hoppe and baby Paul.
