Harriet is the older woman in the black coat on the right. The young woman in the middle of the back row may resemble Edna (Lewis) Coulter (1907-) - Mrs. Winfred Everson Coulter, who may appear as an older woman in record 10993. The other people shown are probably Harriet's Coulter children and grandchildren. Archivists know their names and dates, but not their identities. Perhaps someone in the family will see this photograph and solve its mysteries? Harriet was the great-great granddaughter of William Gilley (1746-1839).

While the photograph is old and in disrepair, up close the desks and chairs can be seen to shine indicating that, if not new, they were at least kept very clean. The side wall on the left of this old school was constructed of boards tightly nailed together. The back wall was painted brick. The drawings of children with pinafores, pinned to the left wall, were done by the children and in crayon. We know that the photograph was taken in October from the owls and black cats and autumn leaf décor, still universally used in school rooms around Halloween.

Left to Right: Cora A. Richardson, Mrs. Gilbert H. Rosebrook (1867-1954) Mabel Estelle Stanley Cora and Mabel would have been third cousins if Cora had been born to her adopted father as she and Mabel would both have escended from John (1741-1811) and Emma Cross Rich (1740-1803). Island relationships being what they were, the two women were distantly related by marriage to each other anyway.
