Keep in mind: Confirmed that the page says the 94th birthday of Mrs. Lucinda Allen Oak occurred 'Monday last' and that she lives with her daughter, Mrs. N. S. Steward (the text comes out as 'Stewatd'), with a visit from the old schoolmate Leander Bigelow (not tagged: no tree person). Likely that the daughter is the tree's Nina E. (Oak) Steward, wife of Nahum S. Steward. The image has not had an independent second check.
