The photo was taken on the occasion of the 50th wedding anniversary of Sidney and Sarah Curtis in June 1906, in front of the Curtis house at 302 1st St SE.
Back row: Unknown, Abigail Curtis Woodring, Martha Curtis Rittman, Millard Curtis, Ezra Curtis, George Curtis, Edward Curtis. Center row: Peter Curtis, Lucy Curtis Ruddick, Harriet Curtis Mosher, S. H. Curtis, his wife Sarah Couse Curtis, Margaret (Ezra's wife), Minnie (I believe this is the widow of Charles Curtis, the only child of S.H. and Sarah who was deceased in 1906), Effie Curtis (wife of Ed). Front: Alice (daughter of Peter Curtis), Frank (son of Millard Curtis), Sarah Ruddick (daughter of Lucy Curtis Ruddick), Don Woodring (son of Abigail Curtis Woodring), Addie Curtis (daughter of Ezra Curtis). I believe the two ladies on the porch are Mary Estella Ruddick (neighbor and mother-in-law of Lucy Ruddick) and Lydia Couse Cool (sister of Sarah Couse Curtis).
