On January 19, 1924, Tacomans of a Southern persuasion gathered at 2706 No. Junett, at the home of Dr. and Mrs. C.P. Gammon, to celebrate the birthday of Civil War luminary General Robert E. Lee. These young ladies, whose mothers were members of the Daughters of Dixie chapter of the United Daughters of Confederacy, posed for the camera in Southern belle attire. Pictured left to right are Doris Steele, Sarah Elizabeth Boland (daughter of photographer Marvin D. Boland), Betty Schluss and Vergie Leckenby. (TNT 1/21/1924, pg. 7) G24.1-005
