Mystery Photo:
This is coming from our old AALA files, in a folder of images of the old President's House 2710 College Avenue. (I will post the images of the house soon). From the fashions, I am guessing this was mid-nineteenth century. If anyone can help identify these women, we would love to give them their names!
