Celebration at Black Point
Image
Family members pose on the lawn of the Bartholomay house on the Black Point Estate. They have gathered to celebrate the fiftieth wedding anniversary of Clara Seipp and Henry Bartholomay, Jr., who is standing just to the right of the corner column of the porch. Standing several places to Clara's right are her sisters Elsa Seipp Madlener, with large corsage, and Alma Seipp Hay, just behind Elsa. The three women were daughters of Conrad Seipp, the prominent Chicago brewer who built Black Point.
