Sally Jo Hance

Here is Sally Jo Hance, my maternal great-grandmother, at the age of 9. Despite losing her father at Gettysburg and having a mother with a pack of little girls to raise, she looks very fine here, with her be-ribboned dress and ringlets, all gone to sepia.

For Sally Jo Hance Arnold in old age, scroll down several posts...

And scrolling down to the Sally Jo as an elder photo--my, you do come from a line of beautiful and strong women, don't you? And I love the careful ringlets in this photo.
