The clothing, particularly the women's smocks and hairstyles, strongly suggests the late 1910s to early 1920s. The handwritten 'Me' likely identifies Esther Burd (born ~1900), who would be around 18-20 years old in this timeframe, aligning perfectly with her visual appearance and her residence in the Dayton area.
