Among the many items in the Harding/Dabbs collection was this photograph of John Williams Burton, a son of Rev. Duncan Hyder and Lavinia "Lilly" Emily (Burton) Selph.
This photograph is dated 2/15/88, which would have been February 15, 1888, to Sister from Jack. The same shaky hand that traced over the writing on Iley N. Selph's photograph traced over this one and added the notation that sister was Auntie Mrs. McLean. That auntie would be Sarah (Selph) McClain or McLean, who was a sister to John Williams Selph and Iley Nunn Selph.
The Doerr photography studio was located at 12th and Market Sts. in Louisville County, Kentucky. Notice that duplicates can be made at any time.
In 1888, John Williams Selph would have been 23 years old.
