1909 MONTREAL ANA CONVENTION PHOTO HELP SOUGHT

  Darryl Atchison writes: "For the past week or so David Sklow
  and I have been trying to identify the individuals in the 1909
  (Montreal) A.N.A. convention photo.  The photo appears in
  Volume 2 of John Adams text "United States Numismatic
  Literature"  page 68.  We have identified about 25 of the people
  in the photo.

  We feel that some of our readers may know who some of the
  remaining people are but readily admit we will never be able to
  name them all.  However, some of the people we still need to
  name look fairly distinctive so we think some of the readers may
  be able to help us. The people we need to identify are:

  1)  In the front row, left hand side - the elder gentleman standing
       immediately beside the young boy

  2)  The first gentleman seated immediately next to the elderly
       gentlemen noted above.

  3)  In the front row, on the far right hand side - the two
       gentlemen standing furthest to the right.

  4)  In the second row - the gentleman just left of centre who i
       holding a hat over his chest.

  5)  In the back row, left hand side - the elderly gentleman with
        a pointed beard and mustache who standing beside the
        lady wearing a black hat (Mrs. John Henderson).

  6)  In the back row - the three gentleman standing on the
       right of the gentleman standing in the centre who is wearing
       the light suit.

  7)  The woman standing on the far right hand side in the back
        row.

  Also, if anyone knows the first name of Mrs. Farran Zerbe or
  Mrs. Waldo Moore, please let me know.

  For your information, we have already identified the following
  people in the photograph (in no particular order).

  J.C. Mitchelson, William Poillon, Edgar Adams, Cora
  Henderson, John Henderson, Ludger Gravel, Theophile Leon,
  R.W. McLachlan, Howland Wood, L.A. Renaud (and his wife),
  Mr. & Mrs. Farran Zerbe, Ben Green, Dr. B.P. Wright, James
  Reid, S.H. Chapman, H.O. Granberg, Elmer Sears, P.O.
  Tremblay, W.W.C. Wilson, Eugene Courteau, Thomas Elder,
  F.G. Duffield, Stephen Nagy, D.A. Williams and Mr. & Mrs.
  Waldo Moore
