Written on the back of the photograph is "taken 1891, Mrs. Fisher and Family".   Mrs. Fisher turns out to be Jacob's younger sister Melissa Jane JONES FISHER.   With the help of a living descendant of Melissa, the people in the photograph have been positively identified (left to right) as Alice, Melissa Jones Fisher, Emma, Ella and Chester Fisher".   By the way, a portrait of Melissa's husband, Adam Fisher, appears later in the album.
