Wordless Wednesday: Frank Benson

Picture taken circa 1914 in the Yreka area of Siskiyou Co., CA. Written on the back: "Frank Leroy Benson. He was about ready to cry here." Frank was the nephew of my great-grandmother. Not long after this picture was taken his mother (my great-grandmother's sister) would die and he, his sister and father relocated to San Francisco to live with Frank's paternal grandmother. Frank died in Siskiyou Co. in 1989.
