Photo of Frank Gillette's relatives

Gathering of the Gillette's, Craigs, and MacCauley's in what I guess was Kearney Nebraska. Back of photo referenced Frank W Gillette, my grandfather but his first cousin Celia Craig was also identified as being the the back row, born in 1887 and she was just 7 years older than Frank, so he would not be one of the small children in the photo. Mary Emma White Gillette sitting on left died in 1918. I could imagine that my grandfather might have taken the photo as he was really interested in photography and was an early owner of a camera.
Picture
Someone labeled the photo on the back with the order following (but with out dates of birth) Back row left to right: Justin (1881-1952)  and his wife  Irene Lorton Gillette, Celia Craig, unknown woman see note below , Marion A Craig (1897- 1953), Ethel Craig Sutton (1889-1979),  Ethel's first husband  Herb  Sutton( b 1875- d 1931).
 Middle row: Emma White Gillette (b 1861- d 1918) and Ernest Gillette (1865- 1942) , Mary/Marion nee Gillette (1867- 1953)  and John W. Craig (1861- 1931) , Sadie/ Sarah Gillette  MacCauley (1873- 1968)  and William R."Mac" MacCauley (1867-1948). Front row guess at kids: ?, Helen L Macaulay,  Robertson Macaulay   and  Sadie Mae MacCauley 

In the 1910 census the Macaulays had 5 children : Helen 13 (born 1897) , Justin 8 (born 1902), T. Robertson 5 (born abt 1905)  Sadie Mae 3(born abt 1907). and Dorothy 1 (born 1909).
In the 1900 census the Craigs had  Celia 12 (born 1887), Ethel 11 (born 1889) and Marion 3 (born 1896).
 
Marion A Craig in this picture was  single as she is listed in 1920 census as single but married Cecil R. Waddle between 1920 and 1925. Joyce thinks the four older girl cousins are in back row with the order being: Celia, Helen ,Marion and Ethel.
Then in bottom row are the 4 younger Macaulay children. Joyce thinks in this order based on appearance of age are: Robertson, Sadie Mae, Justin, and Dorothy. Dorothy appears to be about 2 or 3 years old so photo could be from 1911 or 1912.
Emma and Ernest Gillette at the time of the 1910 census had only the one son Frank White Gillette listed as 15. He left home early as family story had him working on a river boat.
