Notes
- Description
- An out-of-focus photograph, from left to right, of H. H. West, Frances Wells and Mertie West posing outside the front gate of Fort Richardson Post Cemetery. A gravel road stretches across the foreground on an upward angle from left to right. Beyond the road, a white picket fence runs parallel to the road. In the near distance, at center, H. H. West, Frances Wells and Mertie West stand in a row in front of and beneath the entry gate. All look to the camera. Directly behind them stands the entry gate to Fort Richardson National Cemetery. On the top of the gateway, it reads, "FORT RICHARDSON POST CEMETERY." A portion of the gate is open behind and to the right of the group. The cemetery extends into the distance, obscured by the fencing.
