[Last Seven Shakers at Mount Lebanon, Dining in the North Family Dining Room]
1947
Description
This photograph was taken in the North Family Dining Room with the last seven Mount Lebanon Shakers seated around the table. Clockwise from the front left are: Curtis White, Sadie Maynard, Rosetta Stephens, Jennie Wells, Mary Dahm, Grace Dahm, and Sarah Collins. The table is one of the tables probably made by Brother Thomas Fisher at Enfield, CT, and brought to the North Family when Enfield closed in 1917. One of these tables is in the collection of Hancock Shaker Village. On the back of the photograph is written "Last Shakers at Mt. Leb." and the date "1949." The Shakers left in the late fall of 1947.
