I need help in identifying these people.   I believe they all lived in Sac County or nearby.  Our relative, Mabel Horsfield, sitting on the very front by herself is the only one we know and she lived in Schaller, Iowa.  The names are on the back of the picture and I'll write them as written and also there is a # beside each name that we do not know the meaning of.

Jim Story
Mabel Goreham
Flemming
Grace Goreham  133
Eliza Story   112
Laura Story  152
Mabel Horsfield    123
Fred Gilbert  143
Nikie Brennan    177 or 117
Edson Goreham 137 1/2
Bert Mill 136 1/2
Mabel Lester 112 1/2

I appreciate any help we can get....thank you.  

I have a strong feeling I know who the Story and Mill people are in this photo. I was researching my G-Uncle and Aunt. Benjamin McMartin and Mahala Story, they lived in Odebolt for a short time after they were married in South Mountain, Dundas County, Canada. They had a daughter will living in Odebolt, Annie McMartin b. 1890.

I believe that  Jim Story (James) b. abt 1877 is the Son of Francis Story and Caroline Brown - James was born in IA                     Eliza Story b. 1874 is the Daughter of Francis Story and Caroline Brown - Eliza was born in IA 
Laura Story b. 1883 is the First Cousin of Jim and Eliza Story, I time Removed (Laura's mother died in 1902)
  
Bert Mill (Albert Eli) b. 1875 is the Future Husband of Eliza Story (they married on 5 Mar 1899 in Schaller, Sac, Iowa

Mahala Story above would be 1st Cousin to Jim and Eliza Story. And Benjamin McMartin who was first cousin to his wife Mahala is also 1st Cousin to Jim and Eliza Story.  All these "STORY" relatives come from South Mountain, Dundas County, Canada

Now to figure out WHO is WHO..... Thanks for posting the picture. I am the GG-Grandaughter of Annie Story and Peter McMartin - Annie being the Sister of Francis above, and Annie and Peter McMartin, being the parents of Benjamin above.

Laura McMartin-Ruhle
