SIDNEY HIGH SCHOOL — 1909 Photograph of Sidney High
School Students taken November 15, 1909. There are 60
individuals in the photo; 56 names are listed. Four
spaces in the list may be spaces for the unknown
names, or merely a division for the rows. I personally
can identify those whose names appear highlighted: my
aunt Viola Osborn, at the left in the back row; my
father Jess Osborn, arms folded across his chest in
the fourth row; family friend Clara Klein, second from
left front row; and neighbor Hannah Hendricks Rabe,
far right, first row. I feel relatively confident that
the first 13 names are the individuals in the front
row. Hazel Hand is listed twice as #6 and #17, so one
of those is misidentified. The handwritten list of
names was made by Jess Osborn and Viola Osborn in
later years when they were able to identify some of
the girls’ married names which are shown here in ( ).
