The Thomas Richmond Family in Massachusetts in About 1888 -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #910

 This is a priceless (to me) image in my computer file folders: 

The people in this photograph are (left to right):

* Charles Percival Richmond (standing, 1880-1910), son of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Everett Glens Richmond (seated, 1875-1917), son of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Alma Bessie Richmond (seated on Edwin's lap, 1882-1962), daughter of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Julia (White) Richmond (seated, 1848-1912)
* James Henry Richmond (seated on Julia's lap, 1886-1913), son of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Thomas Richmond (seated, 1848-1917)
* Edwin Thomas Richmond (seated on Thomas' lap, 1883-1935), son of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Emily White Richmond (seated, 1879-1966), daughter of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.
* Grace Louise Richmond (seated, 1876-1963), daughter of Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond.

The oldest daughter, Anne Frances Richmond (1869-1939) was not in the picture.

This Richmond family photograph was probably taken on the Richmond farm in Putnam, Windham County, Connecticut. It was probably taken in 1887-8 (since James, the youngest, was still in a "dress"). - perhaps on the occasion of the 20th wedding anniversary of Thomas and Julia.

This photograph is in the possession of Randy Seaver, and was obtained from the Seaver family photograph collection handed down by his parents.

My grandmother is Alma Bessie Richmond (1882-1962), who married Frederick Walton Seaver (1876-1942) in 1900.  Thomas and Julia (White) Richmond are my great-grandparents.

I enhanced and colorized a black-and-white photograph with the MyHeritage photo tools. 

This photograph is a part of my family history.
