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.

"WAS THE YOUNGEST SOLDIER THERE"

J. M. Cleavenger, of Spencer, was here Saturday (Parkersburg, WV)on his way home from attending the big celebration at Gettysburg. Mr Cleavenger enjoyed the distinction of being the youngest soldier on the grounds. He was the youngest soldier from West Virginia. He enjoyed greatly this great reunion of the Blue and Gray, which he said was the biggest affair of the kind ever held.

(Article in The State Journal, Parkersburg, WV Saturday July 5, 1913)

Frances Cochran was born 15 July 1814 to John and Elizabeth James Cochran in Bath County, Virginia.  Frances married John Smith Jr. on 12 November 1835.  In 1843 the couple sold their 180 acres of land in Pocahontas County and started west with John's brother Andrew's family.  According to a family story handed down through the generations the group made it as far as Kanawha County when Frances became sick.  Andrew continued west and John and Frances stayed in Kanawha with their family.  Eventually they brought land near Newton at the head of Blown Timber.  A descendant of the couple still lives on the land.  John joined Capt. Spencer's Company B, 9th West Virginia and went off to the war.  He died 22 August 1862 from illness.  Frances stayed at the homestead watching her family grow.   She passed away 20 April 1895 and is buried in Newton.
