Remember, though, that despite having been founded in 1851, Alpha Delta Pi didn't establish its Beta chapter until 1905. From 1851-1905, it was the Adelphian Society at Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia.

I agree, though, that it's likely to be a local sorority, especially since they are holding a Delta Nu banner and the photograph simply refers to members of Delta Nu on the back. Seems likely that if it was a chapter of a national sorority, the banner would be of the national sorority, and the back would say "members of Delta Nu [Chapter] of ABG."

And yes, Mywak, it might be helpful if you could post the picture.
