James Alford Curtis and Sarah Jane Wheeler Curtis.

Information given to me by Kathy Greer.
A copy of these charcoal portraits were under glass on James's and Sarah's hand made tombstone.
They cannot be seen now due to age. Kathy's great Aunt Mollie provided the original charcoal portraits from which Kathy took these pictures.
