This photo is in our family collection and the only clues I have as to who she might be are: my ancestor, John T. Duffey lived in wheatland, Hillsdale, Mich in 1860; his son Alonzo moved to Ohio married a Blinn; several members of the Blinn family visited someone in Michigan; Chester Blinn married Maria Boyden who was related to Luther Boyden of Michigan.

Are any of these people known to you?

If you know anything about Mrs. Mellish and want her photo in a larger file, please contact me.
