Enscribed in the album: "Grandma Biese’s photo album before she married Grandpa in 1874 – so this book is at least 100 years old – Mother." [written in pencil] and "This was a step-grandmother but the only one I ever knew – Dad’s own mother died of yellow fever in 1873. Her name was Harriett Narcissa McDonald before she married Grandpa" [written in ink]..
