Mrs. Jean Manson. After her marriage to Wilfred Manson in 1920, they lived for a time in the George Freeman home on Hernando Island. The sheep is an ewe named 'Sitkum Seeakwis' after she lost one eye and became something of a pet and a character. Their black dog 'Pip' is looking on. Note the rain barrel with trough at the side of the house.
