This is the John Burris Nicholson Family on the Mountain at Cryer Creek, Texas. Going by the birthdates of two of the children, we have figured out that this picture was made in September  or October of 1904. Pictured are: John Burris Nicholson (b. 1860), Mabel (b.1897), in front of Mabel is my grandfather, John Albert (b. 1903), Henry Marshall (b. 1894), Ola (b. 1891), Minnie (1887), in front of Minnie is Myrtle (b. 1900. The youngest was not yet born, but very much in the picture, she is Tommie (b. 1905) and my great grandmother  is Betty Tom Leverett Nicholson.
