"Jessie White," five photographs by Rufus W. Holsinger taken on 1914 through 1917. Aside from the 1917 portrait (X05123A), all four are of the same young woman. 

The young woman in the four portraits below also appears in a 1919 portrait by Holsinger labelled "J.S. White."

Additional information about Jessie White / the women photographed will be added as it is researched.

NOTE that the name with which the portrait is labelled is not necessarily the name of the sitter in the portrait, unless otherwise verified (the date and name associated with each photograph is from the business ledgers of R. W. Holsinger).
