Biography - Hattie Lane

Hattie Lane
of Navarro County, Texas

HOME

The picture was taken in Kerens in the front yard of "Aunt Hattie" Lane. These ladies were all "best friends" in the late 1890s - early 1900s. The ladies in the picture called themselves the "Big Five" - according to my grandmother. ...... Barbara Knox

I am not sure of the identify of the lady standing in the center. White must have been popular to wear in that time period - or maybe it was just summertime.
