1900-1959. - Negative of an unidentified woman standing in front of flowers in a fenced-in area on the grounds of the Legros house in Pointe-Saint-Pierre.

In the background, on the coast, we see the family home of Édouard Sweeney (1886-1953) and Victoire Réhel (1897-1986), still standing in 2023.

A family member tells the story that Victoire Réhel came to work as a maid at Maison Legros around 1915, and had to wear a maid's headdress and costume.
