Thanks Seuss., we'll correct and update this catalog record.

Jordan Lawrence Mott (1903-1979) www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q122169985 His marriage license uses the 3rd but his birth certificate uses the 5th. Looking at his Familysearch entry, he is the 5th of his name. The discrepancy may have to do with the first two generations using Sr. and Jr.

More about Kodak. Ironically, Kodak, which was also responsible for inventing digital photography, is now witnessing its own downfall as a result of the medium’s proliferation. Though the future of Kodak is still uncertain, its illustrious history is a long and interesting one, dating back to 1880, and the days of Thomas Edison. Back in the late 19th century, Mr George Eastman, who had established the Eastman Dry Plate Company, was working on an invention that would enable pieces of paper covered in photographic emulsion to record photographic positives. Along with the help of William Walker, another photographic expert, the two developed a holder for Eastman’s photo plates. Source: independent-photo.com/news/historic-brands-kodak/
