James Monroe and Sarah Ardecie Curtis Hatcher
I think the couple in the center is James Monroe and Sarah Ardecie Curtis
Hatcher. This is one of the ones with no identification on the back.
The man in the center does bare some resemblance to the other picture I have of
James Monroe Hatcher. Any info that anyone might
have would be welcomed.

The 3rd picture is also a bit of a mystery. The writing on the back is
faded to the point of being illegible. However, my great-uncle identified
a
couple of the people for my mom several years ago. The men on the front
row are Sam Smith and George Smith. Sam is holding the child, her name is
Dallas. What little I can read on the back identifies the people as Uncle
George Smith and Aunt Georgia Smith (I assume she is the lady standing to the
right of George). I am assuming that Sam and George are the sons of Eli
and Mary Jane Curtis Smith. If that is correct, Georgia would be the
daughter of Gallant Frances and Mary Ann Gray Wheeler.
