The back of this photograph, in the Whitmore family collection, says: "Harriet, dau. Of Enoch and Charlotte (Kimball) Boynton of Groveland, Mass. Born about 1862. Ancestry line. William Boynton - 1 - & Sarah Jackson Joshua Boynton - 2 - & Hannah Barnett Joshua Boynton - 3 - & Sarah Dole Enoch Boynton - 4 - & Rachel Foster Enoch Boynton - 5 - & Abigail Farren Methusalah Boynton - 6 - & Amelia Dodge Enoch Boynton - 7 - & Charlotte Kimball Harriet and her brother Charles, living out at Seattle This photo 1894" These facts agree with a mixture of other accounts and would lead one to suppose that Harriet's photograph was kept by the Whitmore family, who intermarried with the Carrolls and Lurveys, because Harriet was a first cousin twice removed to Rachel Foster Lurvey (1791-1881), Mrs. John Carroll. Harriet was, therefore, in her own generation a third cousin to the ten children of Jacob William and Rebecca (Whitmore) Lurvey Carroll.
