    Family photo and following text contributed by Harris Atkins: Attached is a group picture of my grandfather's (Arthur C.) family. It was printed as a postcard by a photographer in St. Augustine or Orange Grove FL. My grandfather is standing, third male from the right. He looks to be in his late teens-early 20's. Since I don't find my grandmother in the picture, I'm guessing that it was before they married. Probably abt. 1900-1906. The male which looks the oldest , standing next to him, could be Edward T., his father, as he looks like my grandfather did later in life. But, but looks younger than someone who would have been in his late 60's-early 70's. My greatgrandmother, Arthur's mother, does not appear to be in the picture. She died in 1905. His oldest two brothers, Owen and Edward J., would have been in their mid 40's. I think the 2nd seated male from the right in the light suit is my grandfather's brother Walter. I met him once as a child and remember him to be very slender. He would have been 26 in 1900.
