The photograph belongs to the Clark family, descendants of Nathan Clark and Mercy (Higgins) Clark. Archivists have debated Mary's identity for some time. Their best guess is that she is Amelia Mary Clark (1831-1905), daughter of John Clark and Margaret Adaline (Richardson) Clark, granddaughter of Nathan Clark and Mercy (Higgins) Clark – Mrs. William Thomas Holmes, mother of Anson Irving Holmes. The photograph was likely taken at the Lewis Holmes house on Fernald Point Road.
