Description

This tag was found in the outbuilding of a property that borders the Silkman House property. Though unverified, "Miss L.C. Silkman" is likely Luella Silkman (1856-1940), daughter of Aaron Burr Silkman and Elizabeth Seager. By the time Luella was born, Aaron had already moved from Providence to Scranton. They moved to Vineland, NJ in 1870, back to Providence in 1873, back to Scranton, and then finally back to Vineland, NJ. The item is undated.
