PHOTOS AND MISCELLANEOUS PAPERS
The photographs on the following pages represent a small sample of those from the Stella Anderson Collection at the Springfield History Museum, Springfield, MO. Any help in identifying the individuals would be appreciated. Many of these people are relatives of the YANCEYs and ANDERSONs; many of these may have belonged to Daniel J. Yancey's second wife, Marie T. MCFARLAND BURTON. Other individuals in these photographs are neighbors and friends of these families.
