I've "rescued" an old photograph of Clare CROWTHER of Ripon, Wisconsin. The photograph was taken at the Dunn's Art Gallery Studio in Ripon, WI, likely sometime in the 1890's with Clare appearing to be in her teens or 20's. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding Clare and her family: Clara S. CROWTHER b. 15 Mar 1873 in Black Earth, WI to parents William Saville CROWTHER (b. 10 Apr 1843 in Manchester, England) and Mary MCCORD or MCCORDON (b. 15 Feb 1854 in Waukesha, WI). Clara married Henry Otis NASH (b. Mar 1863 in Oak Grove, WI, son of Noah P. NASH and Ellen V. SMITH) on 8 May 1907 in Ripon, WI and together they had a son, William NASH. Clara died 26 May 1951 in Ripon, WI and is buried in the Oakwood Cemetery in Beaver Dam, WI. Census records provide the following information: 1880 census of Stacyville, IA: William S.
