Isaac Missionary Letter Home May 13

I like the not from the margin, "Kiss all the children for me.  I ever see them and you in my mind."   There is a page change in the middle, with an entirely diferent subject.  He talks of helping with the immigration, and hoping his family can meet a woman who has helped him on his mission.
[Upper margin] kis all of the Children for me[.]  i Ever see them and you in my mind[.]  god bless

I need help

I have a of William Haston's family.  The picture identifies a woman holding a baby as Aunt Hattie.  The closest I come to this is Harriet Rhodehouse, the wife of Charles.  Charles and William were close in age so this is a possibility.  I was wondering if anyone new of anyone who could be closer?  I checked the sisters of Annie and no one has a name similar to this.  Harriet had a baby who would have been two months, named Harriet Wardle.

Family History Pictures

https://familysearch.org/photos/
I am so impressed with this website I had to share.  Family Search has a place for photos.  I clicked on it and people in my ancestry have been downloading photos.  You can click and the person, and there is a link to tell how they are related to you.  It is incredible.  I have discovered new photographs of people I know.  I have also discovered people I didn't know, but I can quickly see how they relate to me.  For example I found this picture of my grandparents.

If you have an account, you will be able to see those related to you.  If you do not have an account you will have to create one.  However this is free.

Letter from Isaac to Home July 2, 1879

In this letter Isaac accepts the baby's name, talks of his health and being busy.  He mentions a poem, and hopes Minty [Araminta] would learn to sing it when he returns.  Minty must have been the singer in the family.
