Taken before 1938, this photo is from the Collection of Polly Kuhrt Eckles, widow of Leslie Eckles, and is thought to be the only photo in existance of this individual.

She was born 12 Sep 1855 in Illinois and died 21 Feb 1938 in Mason County, Texas. This was one of my "brick wall" lines and individuals. Due to a family tree book authored and distributed by Rita Joyce Waggoner Eckles to the family, and the subsequent sharing this year in August 2002 by Polly Kuhrt Eckles, I have been able to solve a lot of the mysteries of our line which had been a problem for all my years.
