Sepia Saturday 200: She made hats
This is a photo I estimate to be circa 1868-1875 of the millinery shop owned and operated by my great-great grandmother, Mary Emily (Conner) Meek in Grenada Co., MS. (Click here to read more about her.)
From comparing the only known photo I have of her to this one, I think grandmama was the lady seated to the right of the post.
But I can't be sure.
