These three photos represent a mother, her daughter and son-in-law, and her youngest son.  Bertha Ann Huband, pictured at right, is the older sister of my 2nd great-grandfather, Heber Albert Huband.  Bertha married Corydon Henry Bevans.  Bertha and Corydon had nine children.  Their daughter Pearl married Earl Polley, pictured in the center.  Bertha and Corydon’s youngest son was named for his father and is pictured on the left.

The Bevans family members appear in this album several times.  My great-grandmother was very close to her first cousin, Margaret Noble Bevans who was the daughter of Bertha & Corydon.
