Agnes Standish Scribner

Here's a favorite image of mine; it's a postcard that was sent to the wife (Mary C. Spencer) of my great-great grandfather (he had 5 wives throughout his life). Her granddaughters are the on the left and right; Nellie and Agnes Standish. The girl in the middle is Hazel Wells, the sister of the girl who was engaged to their brother Miles (as it says on the postcard). Agnes went on to marry Edward Warren Scribner, son of Edward Almond Scribner, who built the Scribner Log Cabin, that is now located at the San Juan Historical Museum. Agnes' husband Edward was one of the nine children raised in the cabin.
