Article from the "Old Time Album" - Paoli, Indiana

This article features my great-great uncle, Charles D."Charlie" Hammond. If you look closely you will see that he is part Native American. Family tradition is that his mother, (my great-great-great-grandmother) Susannah Harmon, was a full-blooded Cherokee. The young boy in the photo is his son Carl. Carl and his sister, Sudie, were left orphaned after their mother, Lizzie, died in 1903, and Charlie in 1908, both from Tuberculosis.
