This photo is very small and has faded terribly, hence the reason for the strange color. I believe these were contemporaries of my great aunt’s daughters, Ethyl and Ednah Forkner, and would have been taken about 1905. Beattie was a family in and around Phillipsburg, Missouri, and the spelling varies from Beattie, Baettie, Beatty, and Buatte. The McMenus family were related to the Beatties through marriage on the Smith side. In the middle is May Beattie with Lizzie Graves next to her. That is Albert Hayes on the left.
