Photo taken in 1991 by Larry McElroy. This trip to Iowa was made after G'Pa Jud passed away. They went up to Iowa to get G'Pa Jud and G'Ma Edith's bedroom furniture. It is an antique set that consists of a dresser, a headboard, and a dressing table. It is still in the family, as Jay and Kim Foster now have it in their guest room, in Pelham, Alabama.
The photo is of G'Pa Jud and G'Ma Edith's headstone. This is an amazingly clear photo to me considering we did not have digital cameras yet. A true testament to what a great photographer Larry McElroy is!
Bah and Rosella are in the background. There are many people buried here, including Amy Clarke, G'Pa Jud's second wife.
I wanted to post this because most of the Judson Hersman descendants will not get up to Iowa to see this in person. And if it isn't important to you now, it will be one day!!!
