Tintype of a baby girl sitting in a small chair. An arm is visible behind her, most likely her mother holding the toddler straight in the chair. A note taped to the back reads "Mom at 1 year." The child is Maggie Ann Pearson (possibly Magnelene, March 1874-1961, later married John McKinsey). Her parents, George W. Pearson and Delcena Arabell or Arabella "Bell" (Thurston) Pearson, are shown in ia-0128-c002-0016, likely taken during the same sitting since the mother wears the same plaid dress. In 1880 the family lived in Hendricks Township, Shelby County, Indiana.
