In the photo are, L-R: my great-grandmother, Jessie Martha Ainsworth Moore, her daughter Thomas Ellena (who died at age 4), baby Lyman Southard Moore on the table, Beltsie (I'm guessing this may have been Zibbie's sister, Betsy, but I have no proof... just the similarity in names), Zibbie on far right and my grandmother, Pauline A. Moore Gentry standing in front of Zibbie. 

Uncle Southard (Sud) was born in April of 1904 and Thomalena (as they shortened Thomas Ellena's name) was died in ward born in Nov. 1902, so I'd guess this photo was taken in fall of 1904. My grandmother was born in Aug. 1898, so would have been about 4 years old. His daughter, Jessie Martha (Ainsworth) Moore, kept very detailed diaries for years, and in one entry Jessie states that Zibbie, who married her father following the death of her mother, died on a Friday, April 6, 1940 at 1:00 am. Jessie also noted that her father, Thomas D. died Tuesday, 11-13-1917 at 10:05 in Oak Lodge, LeFlore Co., OK. [Lee Lewallen]
