    1901 Photo of Stafford Sisters
    1901 Photo of Stafford Sisters
    The back of the photo contains...

    Edith, 18
    Etta, 16
    Minnie, 14

    My assumption is that Minnie is on the left (looks the youngest). The girl on right looks closest to aunt Etta (remarks from Gretchen Smith Abeling), leaving Edith in the middle.

    The notes on the back appear to match the birthdate information for the girls, as Edith was born in 1883, Etta in 1885, and Minnie in 1887. This places the date for the photo at 1901.
