At left is a photo of him, probably from 1904, with his mother, Elizabeth (Elžbieta Benevičiūtė) Banevich Guokas (1875-1929).
The photograph was taken by Anderson & Co., who had a studio at the time at 403 and 1/2 Main Street in Houston. You can't see it at the bottom of the scan of the photograph, but I cropped that area out and adjusted the color and contrast to make it visible.
Consulting Catching Shadows: A Directory of 19th-Century Texas Photographers by David Haynes (page 3), Samuel Anderson is listed as having a studio at this address in Houston city directories from 1892 through 1901. The 1902-03 and 1903-04 Houston city directory in the Houston Area Digital Archives also has a listing for him at this address).

My Aunt Nancy Brown Windler died Nov 2012 at 106 yrs old in Columbus Ohio. She shares this birthdate. She was lucid to the end and a true southern belle.
