Figure 1.-- The studio portrait caninet card shows four sisters, all in fancy dresses, with one boy/brother gathered together for a family photo. All siblings are identified on reverse as Emma, Cora, Ora, Edna, and Verne Pendleton. The photgraph was taken at the Mackey studio in Medford, Oregon. The portrait is undated, but looks like the 1890s, probably the late-1890s to us. This is suggested both by the mount as well as the children's clothes. The boy wears a knee pants suit with a wide white collar, blouse, and black long stockings.
