  • Davis Family Reunion 1890 - The first photo has a label at the top Samuel Davis Family Reunion 1890?  I am sure that the front row are great grandkids.  The second row are most likely some of the children of Samuel Davis and may include Isabella M. his second wife but I cannot recognize her.  Surely there are Wimmer, Mater,  and Crooks mixed in this photo with their Spouses who were Davis girls, sons spouses include Beauchamp, Blake, Jerome and Martin.

  • Davis Family Reunion 1916 - The second photo is a little unclear to me as to when this was taken, I presently have it as 1916 but don't think this is correct.  Perhaps someone in Parke County will recognize someone and be able to better date it.  On the second row third from the right is my Great Great Grandfather John Davis.  Seated in from of John is Clyde Smith, Johns Grandson.  Behind John with her hand on John's shoulder is his daughter Barbara Isabella Smith and her husband Elmer is standing next to her.  Clyde Smith was born December 1891 so that would suggest that this photo could be prior to 1900.  Clydes younger brother John Jay Smith is missing from the photo.  He was born in July 1896 so perhaps this was taken at the 1894 Reunion which I do not have a photo of.  Also, the diary of John Davis' daughter Lizzie doesn't indicate that John went to Indiana for the 1894 Reunion.  John Davis' wife Louisa nee Jerome died in May 1897 so I suspect that this photo  must have been taken after May 1897 and John Jay Smith must have been down for a nap.  Looking at the size of Clyde I would guess him to be six or seven years old in this photo.
