    Ellen M. 'Nellie' Davison or Amelia F. 'Minnie' Davison?
    Ellen M. "Nellie" Davison or Amelia F. "Minnie" Davison?
    This was a photo we had of Ellen M. Davison "Nellie", "I did enjoy" p. 168 labels the photo "Minnie" referring to Amelia Freeman Davison, b. 1862. Another small mystery to resolve!
