| In September 2018, according to Shan Holt, great granddaughter of Lucy Rumsey Holt, this picture was taken at the Evergreens, the Rumsey family home at 404 E. Deerpath Rd., Lake Forest, IL. For a later image of Lucy Rumsey Holt's concert harp, see Image ID: 142580. The date of this photograph is set at approximately 1894 because Lucy appears still to be living with her family in Lake Forest. W.A. Holt and Lucy Rumsey were married in 1895, after which they moved to Oconto, Wisconsin. Cyanotype print. |
