This cabinet card comes from the New York Gerster / Fox estate.
I am not positive who the children in this photo are. I am certain it is from the FOX side of the family, as the girl looks a lot like ALICE FOX GERSTER (1885-1971). It may be her, or perhaps another relative of hers.
This photo is not identified on the back.
This image features the girl (that may be Alice Fox or may be a relative of her's with a resemblance) in a plaid dress. The baby is seated on a fur, wearing a very long white gown (or is that a blanket?)
The photographer of this image: H. M. Vaupel, 989 3rd Ave, So E Cor. 59th St. New York
*Alice Fox (1885-1971) were the children of the affluent New York lawyer Austen George Fox (1849-1937) and Alice Hoppin Fox (1857-1933)
*Their cousin Austen Fox Riggs (1876-1940) was the son of Austen George Fox's sister Rebecca Fox Riggs and Benjamin C Riggs. He was a pioneer in the field of psychiatry and founder of the Austen Riggs Center.
*Alice would marry John Carl Arpad Gerster (1881-1874), one of the founders of The American Cancer Society, originally American Society for the Control of Cancer, which was first headquartered at his childhood home, 34 E 75th St NYC.
