Courtesy of Catherine Banning:  I submitted a picture of a group of people and I have been able to put a last name to one of the ladies.  On the back of this picture, in very faint pencil writing, was the name McCurdy.  Also on the front X’s were put above my grandmother and her sister.  But reviewing this photo I see a faint X above one of the other ladies.  So, I think the lady standing on the left in the back row was “McCurdy”  Photo taken in Fonda *Added 10 Mar 2018
