Card Family Reunion
I believe this photo was taken in Nova Scotia and even though the back of the photo says Card Family Reunion, there may be many of the Burgess clan there as well. I have no idea who any of these people are, except I know at least some of them are my Card ancestors. I'm hoping someone can ID some of these people. Thanks so much
Who are these people? Do you recognize anyone? I think this is a photo from the early 1900's.

Sanford Franklin Burgess, Tennessee
A photo, I believe, of Sanford Franklin Burgess from Stewart County, Tennessee. In 2009 an archive of over 1100 glass plate photographic negatives taken by Sam A. Feltner, a resident of Bumpus Mills, Stewart County, Tennessee came to light. He photographed local individuals, couples, families, etc., mostly during the 1910 - 1925 time period. It appears most of his work was in Districts 3, 4 & 5 of Stewart County. ( Big Rock, Tobacco Port, & Indian Mound) Over 1800 images are in the archive. We hope that as more & more people view the photos, more identifications will follow.
