Identification provided by Sadie Rapp (Sheeks, Spillman), the chubby little girl third from right, from memory in her old age. NOTE: Records show that J.N. Pace did not have brothers Henry and Tom as identified in red above. Perhaps they were (Mary) Ann Eliza Jackson's brothers. (Her name was Mary Ann according to family lore but all official records show Ann Eliza; thus the Mary in parenthesis.)
Families of J.N. Pace's other two living children are not shown: Margaret Frances Pace Lasiter, who moved to Oregon; George Pace (my grandfather), who was section foreman on the Missouri Pacific Railroad in Granby, MO, at that time.
