Hannah Armstrong. I think that's the picture of her wearing the funny looking lid.

Brilliant, Joe. I thought for certain I'd have to give some hints. You once mentioned that you like cold weather so you win one very lengthy visit from the lovable polar vortex this winter.

But please make sure that polar vortex hangs only over Joe's home. I'm already sick of the cold weather here in Maryland.

I'm really glad I didn't win this time. If there's any lovable Equator Vortex or Sahara Vortex in the prize vault I hope I'll win that one day!

Jennie Wade of Gettysburg?

Kudos, Dawn - this is correct!!! I was sure this would need longer!

Her name doesn't come to my memory, what is her story?

Actually, this "funny looking lid" as Joe calls it, is a normal bonnet. For some reason photographers would turn the bonnet so that the back was on top of the woman's head. Personally, I think this may have been done to show the decoration on the back of the bonnet. Otherwise, it would never be visible in photos.

That's a neat bit of trivia, Donna. It still doesn't do much for Hannah. That's one scrappy lookin' gal.

Dolly Madison ?

Kees, that is an excellent try, but it's not her.
