Well on second glance . . .
On the front of this photo is written Arnold House New York. It is definitely not the Johnson house. But the similarities . . .
I may change my mind on that earlier post. If this home touched the Johnson property, I wonder why we never saw it while we were in New York in 1996. We drove all around that area, and I don't recall this home. I'll have to "Google Map" that area to see if this home is still standing?
1958
Back Row: Marguerite (Linn) Kendrick, Frank Linn
Front Row Left to Right: Nellie Yackee, Leone Cook, ?

New York Homes
Recently obtained photos from the Kendrick family (cousins).
Back of above photo says: Stukeley and Lovicy (Lobdell) Arnold Amos Arnold was born and raised in this house by Morrisonville near Plattsburg, NY This farm joins the Johnson Place
Hmmmm . . . Looks very similar to the top photo. Possibly just the back side of the top photo. The windows are exactly the same. You can even see the hinges where the shutters used to be. The doors have the same side windows. The foundation is very, very similar. The roof line is the same. Not sure about the validity of the information written on the back of the bottom photo. I think they are the same home.
Back of above photo says: David & Seba Johnson (Ayers) The Johnson Residence Built 1860
I can verify this home. I visited the home that was in 1996 a bed and breakfast.

Johnson Sisters
Sitting left to right: Mary "Elizabeth" Johnson, Lora (Johnson) Arnold, Flora Johnson.
Standing left to right: Amanda (Johnson) Johnson, Martha (Johnson) Ayers, Ida (Johnson) Ladd.
The photo below has writing on the back, but it is very confusing:
Three of Johnson sisters?
Ida Ladd on left or Aunt Mary
Elizabeth Johnson - right
Amanda Johnson middle?? or Seba Lewis?
I don't know what to think about this photo. Do you see any resemblance to the top photo?

Irving G. Bunker
Irving G. Bunker remarried Adelaide Estella "Adda" Pettys.
--Sawyer Cemetery, Sawyer, Ward County, North Dakota.
No Names
These two photos are connected with nothing written on them.
Possibly Mary Ella Arnold and her first husband, Irving G. Bunker. The gentleman is the same as a previous post with a question mark on the identification of it being "Aunt Mary's husband? Bunker?"
Irving G. Bunker?
On the back with question marks: "Aunt Mary's husband? Bunker?"
If this is Mary Ella Arnold's first husband, he would be Irving G. Bunker. Thoughts anyone?
Hattie Arnold McNeil
Harriet or "Hattie" is so easy to pick out in photos. Her hair style never changes. (Front row, in white) I am wondering if that is Mary on the right seated in the buggy.
Aunt Mary
On the back of the photo: Aunt Mary.
Possibly Mary Ella Arnold. Daughter of Amos and Lora (Johnson) Arnold. I believe she was married four times. More research here: Bunker, Tarvin, Dickey, Stevens.
Can anyone confirm her identity? Email me at: jandowell@hotmail.com
