1916 Winter Storm Durand Illinois

From my Grandmothers’s Album. More than 100 years ago.

These winter photos look similar to posts I’ve seen the last few days. No hand pump for water these days. But the snow looks familiar.

My Grandmother and Great Aunt c.1917

But who is in the middle? A neighbor, relative? Their grandmother? Not their mother.

I wish I knew. Maybe my cousins will be able to identify.

On the left my Aunt Edna and on the right her sister Charlotte, my maternal grandmother. The woman between is unidentified.

Your Guess as Good as mine

From my grandmother’s album.

At first I thought they were my grandparents, Judd and Charlotte VanSickle.

I don’t even know who owned the camera.

In or near Durand, Illinois. Early 1900’s

Women 1916 Durand Illinois

The indoors photo was placed in the album before the outdoors photo.

Previously posted on the blog, but I think it’s the same group of women. From my grandmother’s album. “Doris February 1916” ?

Grandmother, Her Sisters and Friends

Grandmother second from right Aunt May left center

My son Mark found my mother Marian and her brother John in the photos. My mom was born in 1912 so this photo must be about 1914.
