A photo of Bessie Merrel Raines

I have this for years. Just wondering maybe others may know when and where it was taking. It would have to be in the versailles, Missouri area.

Bessie Merrel Raines Nov 7, 1925 - Aug 22, 1940

My grandpa, who is Louis Edward Raines, told my mother when I was born that I looked and acted just like her. My grandpa didn't talk much about her as her history was tragic. But I feel really close to her always thinking about her and wonder. Anyone have a story about her I would love to hear it thanks.
