User Comments:
• I am certain the third man from the left is NOT Swaby Lawton (my grandfather). For one thing, Swaby was bald, and there is no resemblance of facial features. However, I am 99% certain the building in the background is Charles D. Lawton I residence in Lawton, MI (see attached photo from our family collection). The house is no longer standing. I don't recognize anyone in the photo, including the person on the far right which was thought to be Charles L. Lawton, but I don't have too many photo's of him to compare. -- Charles D. Lawton III
