George Benton and Maude Mae Sisson Fry
The four young children in this picture (L-R) are Myrtle, Bernice, Montgomery and Don Fry. Maude Mae appears pregnant (she would lose a child in infancy in 1906). George Benton Fry is seated. At the far right is James Earl Fry, who was living with his brother as early as 1900. The elder girl standing is unknown. From the ages of the children, the first guess was that this photo was taken about 1905. However, Uncle Jack told his children that this picture was taken while Maude Mae was pregnant with him, which would put the picture in 1913. A number of photos refer to the "Humphrey house," which may have been rented from the family of an aunt. The location is likely in Green Township, where George and Maude Mae were living during the June, 1900 Census.
