Scott Hawley tells us that he is not related to this woman in any way. The photograph was found in the collection of Scott's Great-Grand Aunt, Grace Hafford Ankrom, who identified the woman as a neighbor of the Hafford family who lived on Delaware Avenue in Columbus. Scott goes on to say, "Actually, if a descendent of any of these folks notices these pictures and wants them, they can contact me. I would just want to see how they are related for proof."
Martha Ellen Woodward was the daughter of C. A. and Margaret (_?_) Woodward, born Christmas day (December 25), 1860 at Terra Alta (?), Maryland; died February 11, 1920 in Columbus. She married James Anderson, a carpenter, about 1883. James was also born in Maryland on August 21, 1849; he died July 27 (or 17?), 1900 in Columbus. James and Martha were the parents of three sons:
- 1. James W., born about August 1884 in West Virginia; nothing further is known at this time.
- 2. William W., born March 20, 1885 at Keyser, Mineral County, West Virginia; died August 14, 1938 at Columbus, buried at Green Lawn Cemetery, section 50, lot 196-N.
