Maybe a church or community group? The second from left in the middle row is Aunt Ollie; on the far right in the middle row is my great-grandma Angie; and in front of her is Eugene Chase. Right in the middle in front of the tree, I think could be Edna Priscilla Johnson, sister of my 2x-great-grandmother, or another family member. I believe this is the mid-1890s.

Uncle Al and Aunt Ollie as I remember them
Great-grandma Angie Remington with her sis Aunt Ollie, my dad Norman, and Uncle Al Hopkins at their house on Knotty Oak Rd. We used to visit there often when I was very young.
