1899 Glathart Family Portrait

This wonderful family photo was posted online by another researcher who identified some of the people in it. The (cardboard?) frame around the photo (which I've cropped from the image below) has faded writing identifying each person but some of the writing is unreadable.

The photo is of Aaron and Jennie Glathart, most of their children and most of their grandchildren. Their married daughter, Edna Glathart Warren, is missing because she died aged 23, possibly of tuberculosis, two years prior to when the photo was taken. One of Edna's three children, Delbert is in the photo. 

Lena Glathart Huston and her three children, Bernice, Frances and Arthur, are in the photo. 1899 is when Lena and her husband, Till, were living in Cuba.

Beneath the photo is a 3-generation descendant chart to help make sense of who's who and how they are related. The chart excludes those who had died, with the exception of Edna Glathart Warren, and those not yet born as of 1899.
