Thanks, Chris. When one searches for information back that far in history, the dates vary, as do the spellings of the names, but there is enough of a common thread to make it all sound plausible. My great-great grandmother was Martha Holladay, 1819-1862.

That was fun, Jim: looking up Walter Haliday, minstrel to 3 kings :-)

Thanks, Chris.  I spent a lot of time on genealogy research in my early years 
of retirement, before getting back into photography. I found some interesting 
connections, including one Walter (The Minstrel) Haliday, about 1440-1500 in 
Gloucestershire, who provided entertainers for the Royal Court.

That rescue has worked well, Jim.  I like the composition of the shot, as well 
as the history behind it.
