Lyman H Cook's Family.
Gertrude Maud Cook is the young girl in the middle. Assuming that she's 6 to 8 years old, the photo might have been taken in 1888 to 1890.
Gertrude Maud Cook married into the Songer family - and a copy of this photo was provided by the Songer family.
Our current guesses for who's who...
