Misc. Notes
I guessed @ the name Richard because of a photograph found which reads :
"Photo Taken Feb 18, 1903, With Love to E. B. Walsh from uncle Dick"
Photo taken by Kilburn in Coaticook, Que.
Is this a photo of Williams brother Richard to Elizabeth, Lillian Walsh?

Coaticook is approximatily 100 mile east of Montreal, Qoebec, Canada
Coaticook is about 7 miles north of the Vermont/Canada boarder
you pronounce "Coaticook" as "CO-AT-A COOK"

I have a Photo ( 7 people) with the caption "The boys Richard, Emmett, Frank, Kenny. Mae and the old folks"........Is this Williams brother Richard Walsh 4 sons, 1 daughter & wife ? ?
