I've "rescued" an old photograph of Lillian ARMSTRONG taken at the Squires Studio in Lawrence, Kansas. The photograph is dated April 2, 1905 and Lillian appears to be about one year of age at the time. I'm hoping to find someone from Lillian's family so that this precious old photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
