Mary Elizabeth Montgomery Batchelor
(sitting, right), granddaughter of Mary "Polly" Umstead
and Jonathan Montgomery and daughter of Francis Marion Montgomery
and "Addie" Roberson, her husband Robert Means Batchelor
(sitting, left), and their family. The two little girls in front,
one of whom is dressed almost like a boy, were children of Mary's
sister Zula Caledonia Montgomery. She had married Frank Jones,
had the girls, and died very young and unexpectedly. Frank took
the girls to her sister Mary Montgomery Batchelor's house. The
reason their hair was so short was that Frank had brought them
in a horrible state. Their names were Addie M. Jones and Zula
C. (probably Caledonia like her mom's) Jones. Little Zula should
be the youngest one, sitting on the chair arm. The others are:
Robert and Mary's children, standing, left to right:

The family photo was taken about the
time of the turn of the century, as little Zula, bottom left with
Robert's arm around her, was born in 1897.
