Portrait of Alonzo Kimball
Screenshot of photograph used as frontispiece in the 1902 imprint The American Ancestry and Descendants of Alonzo and Sarah (Weston) Kimball (Green Bay, Wisconsin), compiled by William Herbert Hobbs; photograph's caption reads "ALONZO KIMBALL AND GRANDDAUGHTERS / Alice Rule Sale [left] And Marjorie Weston Kimball"; Marjorie was born in 1886, so judging by her appearance in this image the approximate year this photograph was taken is 1895. It should be noted too that Majorie was the half-sister of American portrait artist and illustrator Alonzo Myron Kimball (1874-1923).Credit: Unknown photographer
