1. The sign above James L. and Margaret's head reads: POST OFFICE, J.L. Forrest PM 2. "The Larkin, Izard County, Arkansas post office was established October 6, 1894, with James L. Forrest as first postmaster." From Karr Shannon's "A History of Izard County: 3. Larkin is located about 4 miles north of Melbourne, Izard County, Arkansas. 4. The youngest child Herbert J. Forrest was born July 29, 1890 and judging by his age I think the picture was taken about 1895/1896. |
