It seems like there is story here. Two sons died very young after this photo. I wonder what happened? WWI?

probably due to lack of medicine in those days. Flu? Cold? Who knows.

We appreciate your interest in the image of the Walcott family at "Olmsted," Provo, UT. Secretary Walcott sadly lost two of his sons at an early age. Charles Doolittle Walcott, Jr. died of tuberculosis on April 7, 1913 while a student at Yale. Benjamin Stuart Walcott was killed in action in France on December 12, 1917 while flying for the Lafayette Flying Corps. A brief biographical sketch for Secretary Charles Doolittle Walcott is included in the finding aid for the Charles D. Walcott Collection,1851-1940 and undated (Record Unit 7004) avialable at [http://siarchives.si.edu/findingaids/FARU7004.htm.]

From a Google-cached page listing of "Scientists Who Have Contributed to Our Knowledge of Freshwater Crab Biology," retrieved Jan. 20, 2009 - she is listed under "African Freshwater Crab Carcinologists" Isabella Gordon 18 May 1901 – 11 May 1988 British carcinologist. Obtained her Ph.D. degree (1926) from the University of London, awarded D.Sc. (1928) by the University of Aberdeen, and received the Order of the British Empire in 1961. In her early years she studied echinoderms, and made working visits to the U.S.(Hopkins Marine Station, California; Woods Hole, Massachusetts; U.S. National Museum, Washington D.C.). Assistant Keeper of Crustacea at the British Museum (Natural History) (Now The Natural History Museum, London) until her retiremen in 1966. The original page, apparently compiled by Dr. Neil Cumberlidge at Northern Michigan University, is no longer there. faculty.nmu.edu/ncumberl/Neil/MainFWC-website/FWCCarcinol... There's a piece on her (probably an obit) in the Nov. 1988 issue of the Journal of Crustacean Biology if someone has access to JSTOR. (I don't on my home computer) And in Crustaceana, Vol. 56, No. 1 (1989)
