Summary
Circular pendant with photograph on each side, one Sarah Jackson, the other her husband Arthur Jackson. It is likely to have been made around the time of their marriage in 1911.
Sarah and Arthur Jackson had three children - Mary, Henry and Arthur - before Arthur died tragically in a farm accident. Her two oldest children were removed by authorities as she struggled to support her family by playing violin, but she regained them when she married again - for convenience - to a widower with his own family.
Physical Description
Pendant with photograph on each side, one a man, the other a woman. Set in brass ring with added brass spheres and mounts around edge, one with a blue stone, one a white stone, and two apparently missing stones.
