I presume the families are of Irish ancestry, dates and locations unknown.
The images are leftovers from messing with Xwitter’s Grok AI generator (click to enlarge).

fluckyducky – 23 August 2018 “This isn’t from 1960, I made it this morning while I drank my coffee. I posted it on my facebook page at about 10:45am, which was a couple of minutes after I finished making it. That’s my watermark, ‘Clarington Shpoo Imagification’, next to the french fries. It’s a joke, a parody.”
[Update: Image is NOT Isabella Eugénie Boyer; see below.]
The face of the Statue of Liberty. Isabella Boyer’s life is like an exciting novel. She was born in Paris, the daughter of an African pastry chef and an English mother. Isabella had a special beauty and, at age 20, she married Isaac Singer, the sewing machine maker, who was 50 years old. After Singer’s death, Isabella became the richest woman in the country. It is not surprising that she was chosen as the model for the Statue of Liberty, as she embodied the American dream. Widowed, Isabella traveled the world and married the Dutch violinist Victor Robstett, becoming a countess. He became a prominent figure in America and Europe, and met the French sculptor Frédéric Bartholdi at a world event. Bartholdi, impressed by her beauty and history, used her face as a model for the Statue of Liberty. Isabella married a third time and died in Paris in 1904 at age 62, but her face lives on in the iconic statue in New York, symbolizing freedom and American pride.
UPDATE: The top image appears to be the work of Bas Uterwijk and is an A.I. generated image of Aphrodite, not Isabella Eugénie Boyer (who may or may not have been the model for the Statue of Liberty).
Isabella Eugénie Boyer (1841-1904)
