Photograph from the studio of E. M. Davidson, Visalia, 1892.
Someone has written on the back of this photo: "Aunt Carrie, Uncle Mark McKee". Most likely this is an image of Marcus Lafayette McKee and his wife Caroline Virginia Ragle, who were married on 10/5/1892 near Woodlake. Their grave-stone (in Exeter) list their names as: "Mark L. McKee" and "Carrie V. McKee". The 'Blair-Moffett Families, History and Genealogy', by Eva Pogue Kirkman (1935); indicates that Caroline was a "vineyardist".
