Mattie Lewis of Sheridan

When my grandfather died, Mama & Aunt Lou went to live with Aunt Mary French in Lincoln. They stuck together when they went to work as housekeepers in Placerville. They worked the summer of 1905 at Deer Park Springs Hotel between Truckee & Tahoe City, Lake Tahoe. Tourists went by stage from Truckee. Standing, with one of Mama's friends sitting, this tintype must have been taken at the Fair in Sacramento.
