This is the Alexander and Mary Frances (Jones) Harper family.

Maxine Landfried submitted this picture and provides this history:

My mother-in-law, Ersil Bailey Landfried (1911-1987 - See Story in Roane County 1989 book), was a niece of Mary Frances and after she (Ersil) died we found this picture with the words on the back "Harper's little family". Of course, I soon found them in the family tree and census records. It seems all ten children are lined up in birth order. I believe several of the sons became doctors and were influential in Roane County.

Married March 10, 1889 to Mary Frances Jones, daughter of George Washington and Leatha Jane Sleeth Jones. The children seem to be lined up by age. In back, Clyde, Hoyt, Festa and Ulva. In front, the father, Thomas, Ordie, Freda, Hazel, Ava and Russell on his mother's lap. Most of them lived long lives.
