C. H. & Fannie Norris and Mrs. C. I. Norris In the anniversary picture of old settlers Mr. & Mrs. Dimon:
1902 - Photo 83, the 50th Anniversary of Mrs. and Mrs. Dimon/Diamond, who were pioneers here, has pictures of many other pioneers in it,n notably Lydia Holmes (Lydia Griffing, widow of John Gere, who was killed by Indians, later remarried a Holmes), Uncle Benny Ball and wife, Taylors, Talbots, Marble, Griffing. The Norris family is represented here, too. It's too bad the picture is so fuzzy (as is the original). A list of people that accompanies the picture identifies Mrs. C. I. Norris, Mr. C. H. Norris, and Mrs. Fannie Norris as being in the back row, fourth, fifth and sixth persons. It's kind of difficult to figure out what the back row is, too....
