DarcusAdaladeandEstherMagdalineSmith0002.jpg358 viewsThis is a photo of two daughters of Mary Elizabeth Weaver Smith and James Latham Smith (both born at Vance's Tank [Bristol], Sullivan County, TN) :
Darcus Adalaide Smith Cole, b.12-21-1871, d.2-14-1963, buried at Weaver Union Church Cemetery, Bristol, Sullivan County, TN
("Addie" on photo - she was known as "Aunt Ad")
and
Esther Magdaline Smith, b.1-6-1878, d.3-9-1935, buried at Weaver Union Church Cemetery, Bristol, Sullivan County, TN

I would guesstimate the photo was taken between 1900-1915.

Ida Bray Smith, wife of Wade Palhoun Smith (I don't have her birth/death dates at this time)
Mary Elizabeth Weaver Smith and James Latham Smith lived in the area known as Vance's Tank (Bristol area), Sullivan County, TN. Mary Elizabeth was born in Bristol, Sullivan County, TN. This is where their children were born.
I would guesstimate the photo is in the late 1930s or early 1940s, because Wade died in 1944.
