| Unlike so many of the pictures we have this one does not have a photographers name stamp or city. However, on the back side it tells us that we are looking at Bess, Marion, and Hugh. **Updated 10/22/2011 The children are Bessie Barr, Marion Moran, and Hugh Barr, Jr. Since Marion is still a baby here that would put this picture being taken about 1886. For more information about the Barr's see the Oct. 23 blog entry, Barr None. |
Moran Place is located in Dresden,TN. Built by John Williamson Moran for his wife Sophia Riley Gunn. The house used a modified design of George Barber's Cottage no. 36 from his Cottage Souvenir Book No. 2. Construction began in 1895 but was put on hold when Sophia Moran became ill. She died Oct. 7 1895. A few months after her death construction resumed. This blog is about the history of the Moran family & their life at Moran Place. Money is fleeting, History is forever.
