Doss Family Photo c. 1860


This was scanned from a 6" x 8" tintype which has since deteriorated beyond restoration. From left to right, these are Mary Elizabeth Doss (who would marry William Pleasant Umfleet in Lawrence County, Illinois, homestead with him in Missouri, and become Pheobe May Umfleet (Mrs. Ralph) Hazen's mother), To her right are Mary's mother, brother Tom, father William Doss, and older son Steven Doss. This family had roots in  Kentucky and members still live in that state as well as in Illinois.
