That's Fanny! Thanks, CSA! She looks the image of her old man, that's for sure. What a beautiful little child. No wonder Forrest never, ever spoke of her after she died - too much.
I noticed on the grave site there is another picture of her, and there is part cut off. There's a black hand holding her shoulder - I'd sure like to see the whole picture because that hand might belong to the very mysterious and elusive Catharine. @DSessom can you help?

No, that's Willie's hand....
Oh my! What a beautiful child! She certainly bears a strong resemblance to Forrest. Especially in the first picture. Im curious what others think. What features bear the strongest resemblance in your opinion? Eyes and brows? Look of determination on her face?
Great find as usual, CSA! Thanks for posting. Wonder if Emma Sansom would have been about her age?
Emma Sansom was born in 1847 and Fannie Forrest was born in 1849.Great find as usual, CSA! Thanks for posting. Wonder if Emma Sansom would have been about her age?
I thought the same thing, Emma was only two years older than Fannie.Great find as usual, CSA! Thanks for posting. Wonder if Emma Sansom would have been about her age?

diane didn't she die from Scarlet Fever? I know she was five years old.
Nathan's sister died when she was 5 too and think it was typhoid fever. Little Fannie was named for her.
