Attached is a photo that I came across recently of some of the Brisbane sisters: #2 (from left) in the photo is Hannah Brisbane Root, and I believe #5 is Helen (Nellie) Brisbane Weed, both daughters of William Brisbane and Janet Scott. There were seven sisters in all, one of whom died young (Mary). The others are Isabel Fuller Brisbane Kellogg, Catherine Brisbane Rector, Janet Brisbane (unmarried), and Margaret C. (Maggie) Brisbane Turnacliff.

Can any of you identify who is who in this photo? It also may be possible that the seated woman in the middle (#3) is their mother Janet Scott Brisbane. The two oldest sisters, Isabel and Catherine were married and living in Iowa and Wisconsin, respectively, while the rest of the family remained in Minnesota, which might explain the make-up of this portrait.

thanks for any help identifying these women,
Laurie
