Recognizing my mother, Mary Morgan, in this picture helped to tie down the date it was taken. Kenneth Wayne Morgan, her oldest
child, was born in 1926 and she is holding him in her arms. William Leon Morgan, who is positively identified in the "Four
Generations One" picture was also born in 1926. His mother Mamie Morgan is holding him in her arms. The two children
are clearly the same age. Mary Morgan's second child, Leah, was born in October, 1929 and Mary is obviously pregnant in this
picture. So the picture was very likely taken in the summer of 1929.

Emily Alice Baugh Morgan (Wife of George William) died 11 August 1929 in Blackfoot, Idaho and was buried in the Neeley cemetery.
This picture, which was clearly a gathering of Morgan's at the Alvin Morgan home in Rockland, may have been taken at the
time of or somewhere near the time of her death.
