RE: Happy Mother's Day
Thank you, Betty and Roger!

I love the photos, Betty. I was wondering why Fanny wasn't included but then I realized I've never seen a photo of Fanny and Mrs. Seward together. Perhaps there are some at the Seward House.

RE: Happy Mother's Day
I, too would love to see a photo of Mrs. Seward with ALL the kids - funny that there seems to be only this one with the boys --

Perhaps there are others out there as well....would also love to see one of Mrs. Powell with all her kids -- but as far as I know this one of her with baby Lew is the only one in family hands -

Of Course.....But don't have a photo of her and the kids....I can add her anyway! She was a mother, after all!

I think this photo of Will, Seward and Fanny was taken at the same time, so it would be great, Betty if you can do your magic and photoshop the whole family together. Of course, you'll have to remove Will from one of the photos.

Great image, Linda!

We'll also do another one for Dads for Father's Day....

And Mrs. Booth....and Mrs. Dr. Mudd..... don't have any photos of Mrs. Herold, Mrs. Atzerodt, Mrs. Arnold or Mrs. O'Laughlen unfortunately! At least not YET!!

OMG - I just noticed that it looks like Fred Seward is holding Baby Lew!!! Big Grin
....who is probably getting ready to beat him over the head with a baby rattle!

Just be glad it's not Fred Sanford or Fred Flinstone

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

And Fanny is wisely pulling away from Baby Lew towards her mother.

I keep thinking of things for you to do, Betty, but do you mind listing who is who in Post #2? I see you added a couple of more mothers but I don't know who they are.

Thanks, Betty. It's starting to look like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
