Narrative

Four-generation photo of Samson Thomas and his family. Adults pictured from left to right are:

Mother, Merle Bell (Thomas) Paul
Great-grandfather, Samson Monroe Thomas
Grandfather, Lewis S. Thomas

The child held by Samson is Merle's son, Thomas George Paul. The photo was taken sometime over winter 1916-1917, and is presumed to be taken on Lewis' farm in Union Twp, Huntington Cty, Indiana - although it may have been taken on Samson's farm on the other side county line of the same township, in Wells Cty.
