I've recovered an old photograph of Flora MCGREGOR which was taken at the Metcalf Studio in West Newton, MA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Flora likely in her teens or 20's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Flora and her family:
?
Flora Belle MCGREGOR or MACGREGOR was b. 16 Jun 1872 in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada to parents John D. MACGREGOR (1840-1928) and Ann ¡°Annie¡± ROBERTSON or ROBINSON (1847-1922).? Flora was one of 12 children born to this couple including John Daniel; Flora Belle; John M.; Mary; Margaret Ann; Duncan Donald; Mary Jessie; Margaret J.; Jane; Daniel ¡°Dan¡± Edward ¡°Ed¡±; Catherine; and Maria Jane MCGREGOR, all born between 1871 and 1892.?
?
Flora married William Pitt FESSENDEN (1877 or 1878-1952) in May 1899 in Weston, MA and they had three children including William Henry; Anne ¡°Annie¡±; and Edward William FESSENDEN, all born between 1906 and 1909.? Flora died 31 Jul 1957 in Newton, MA and is buried in the Newton Cemetery in Newton, MA.
?
I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to their care.? If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.

Thanks,
Shelley
