Shared Photo: Great Grandma White

Question

Clara never smiled.  She married George Washington White and raised a family in Mankato, Minnesota.  She spelled her name Lafavor.  I have used what I understand to be the origional French spelling.  Her family was from the area around the Erie Canal, and worked in a logging camp.  

I wanted to share this family photo of Clara White with the community. Location: Garden City, Minnesota. Date: 1900.

Clara Ellen White and her husband George Washington White lived in the Garden City [Mankato] area most of their lives.  They were buried in St. Paul, MN.

She must be.  Mom said she never smiled.
