This page from a scrapbook in the Edward Ward Carmack Papers is titled "The Givers." It shows an African American woman sitting in a rocking chair as she combs the hair of a girl. It is one of 96 photographs from an album of activities at "Rosemary," a farm or plantation probably in Hale County, Ala. The album was apparently put together as a gift, and the inscription reads "Merry Christmas from Rosemary."
