There's a calendar on the wall from the Moccasin State Bank in Moccasin, Montana (near Windham), dated Thursday, January 23rd. Lyle Matin says the 23rd happened on Thursday only four times between 1900 and 1920 (1902, 1908, 1913, 1919). Since Mayme and Ed were married in 1909 and they were living in Helena, Montana in 1919, the picture must have been taken in 1913. |
