This is a photograph of the family of  Nephi James Bates 1848-1921 and children by his first wife Sarah Sprague Bates.  The photograph was taken in Monroe, Sevier County, Utah in about 1905. It was the site of the family homestead and family farm.  On the far left is direct ancestor Nephi James Bates 1875-1958 with his wife Flora Louise Maiben Bates and five of their children.  It is interesting to note that everyone dressed in their Sunday best for the Photograph.  The elder Nephi is standing on a box.
