Portrait of Young Girl Holding Doll
'The child is Sarah Catherine Clark. She was born May 15, 1868 in Glade Spring, Washington County, Virginia and died February 2, 1945 in a daughter’s home in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She was buried in the churchyard of the Andrew Chapel Methodist Church, Williamsburg, West Virginia. As a child, she was known as Sally Kate, and as an adult, Kate. She graduated from Marion Female Seminary, Marion, Virginia. She was married April 26, 1893 to Avery Lawson Graybeal of Tazewell County, Virginia. They lived with his parents (Simeon and Martha) for some years and moved in 1898 to Greenbrier County, West Virginia to farm near Williamsburg, where she resided the rest of her life. Two Graybeal brothers (Troy and Jerome) had preceded them to the Williamsburg area. Avery L. Graybeal died June 3, 1914 (born January 19, 1862), leaving his wife, three daughters and a son. The second daughter, Miriam Graybeal Keadle (1898-1982), was my mother. She said that her mother was afraid of trains as a child and, when one went by and whistled after the photographer had posed her for this picture, she put her head down, hence the uncharacteristic position. It is said that hers was the sixth generation of the family to live in the family house at Glade Spring. It came through the Dixon (Dickson?) family of her paternal grandmother and was on a farm west of Glade Spring toward Saltville. It was sold out of the family in the 1970s. This photograph is a copy of the original. The copy was made in the 1920s or ‘30s by a Mr. Wallace who was a studio photographer in Huntington, West Virginia. The original photograph is owned by the family of the oldest daughter, Esther Graybeal Bobbitt (Mrs. Alta L.) who lived in Baltimore, Maryland. Betsy Keadle McCreight, December 22, 1983.”
