Mary Alice Martin Hyde with Her Children - 1922
Taken in 1922, this picture shows Mary Alice Martin Hyde, wife of the mayor of Manchester, Connecticut, with her 2 children, Barbara and John Martin Hyde. Mary Alice is wearing a scrumptious patterned silk dress with a sequined cumberbund/sash, and elegant pearls. Young Barbara is fondling her small heart-shaped locket. Mary Alice's husband, John Hunniford Hyde, worked at the Cheney Silk Mills in Manchester. This lovely dress may have been one of their products. We have another picture of Mary Alice taken in 1910.
