I believe that all pictured are probably the children (with spouses)  and grandchildren of William David Bassett (1827 – 1899) and Caroline Antoinette Wheeler (1831 – 1911) [1b. John Bassett of Connecticut].

The date was identified by clothing, and known birth dates of Frank Myers Tichenor, Josephine Bassett Tichenor, and Helen Tichenor (b. 1891), their daughter.    I believe this is a photo of the three Tichenors visiting Josephine’s Bassett relatives.    The man with a cane at front left in photo is probably one of Caroline’s brothers, Clarence Wheeler Bassett, born 1857 or William Hopkins Bassett, b. 1863.

There are three rows of persons: the front row with 5 persons, the middle row with 6 persons, and the back row with 4 people.

Frank Myers Tichenor is in middle row, third from left with white mustache.  His wife, Josephine Bassett Tichenor is sitting below and just to HIS left, with black hat and dark dress with white collar. Their daughter, Helen is sitting right in front of Josephine, in first row with black hat, white blouse and black skirt.      The girl in pig tails is probably Elizabeth Bassett, born 1908, daughter of William Hopkins Bassett.   I believe that the original photo belonged to her.

I would sure appreciate help identifying the other Bassett family members in this photo.
