Additional Comments:
Here are three of the sweetest ladies anyone could ever meet.  Lona (Dude) 
Yates, Gertrude Yates and Willie Yates Britton.  Willie's husband was Luther 
Britton.  He was killed by a train shortly after they were married.  She never 
remarried.  Aunt Dude married a Frank Hill, but it is said that Grandma 
Josephine ran him off.  I have no other details.  She never remarried either.  
Aunt Gertrude never married and was an exceptional artist. They were the 
stereotypical aunts you would visit as a child and loved to come back and to 
see.  The picture was made about 1912.

Note Added May 18, 2004 by Duane Pope
 I verified the dates from the Pleasant Groove Cem. and they are correct.
I do believe it is Captola on the left and Aunt Dude, (Lona), on the right.
Willie was only 7 when the picture was taken.
