Janet, I may have a photo (or 2) for you. But first, you have to digest all of this...have a cup of tea ready.
(A note: I have not yet looked for the adopted Samual Yetman).

In my grandparents shoebox is a bw photo of 3 men standing on a porch. On the back is written “Samuel Yetman, Gill, and Jo…(illegible)." My gfather Alexander Quinton (b11 Jan 1878, Red Cliff, d23 Feb 1963, Medford MA) and guncle William (b7 Sep 1873) came to Chelsea/Everett/Medford about 1902-04. They had siblings Anastasia (b14 Apr 1876, Red Cliff) Theodore (b19 Aug 1885, S Bonavista Bay) plus others, who all stayed in Newfoundland.
I _believe_ my grandaunt Anastasia was married to the Samuel Yetman in the photo, and, from the 1935 Southern Bay Census, adopted a Samuel Yetman.
The second photo is of 2 older woman and a young boy--he looks about 5 yrs old. A surviving daughter of Gil and Gladys Yetman identified one of the woman as Anastasia Yetman AND a surviving daughter of Alexander's identified the same woman as Anastasia Quinton. If the woman truly is Anastasia Quinton Yetman, the young boy in this photo could be the adopted Samuel Yetman from the 1935 Census Southern Bay.
Some background research:
A Samuel Yetman is buried with an Anastatia, near a Gilbert Yetman in Princeton NF (near Keels), a Joseph and Martha Yetman, a Robert, and a Fanny.
