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.
From My Grandmother’s Album
No identifying marks on the back of this photograph. What is the story of these two women who lived more than a hundred years ago? I don’t think they are my ancestors. But I don’t know. Illinois Early 1900’s.
My Father’s Family – Throwback Thursday
My son Mark was in town for business and we looked at an old photo album he hadn’t seen before. You want your offspring to know who has gone before. Already there are faces in the album for whom I have no names.
But here are my father Roy and his siblings and parents. To see and older photo of the family you can click this blog post Heritage
Throwback Thursday September 1916
Durand, Illinois September 1, 1916
Our Parents
My Father’s Day post.
Here’s a photo of our parents, Roy and Marian Hendricks. Dad is holding my sister.
My parents didn’t own a camera so a family friend must have taken this picture.
This lovely photo is in one of those awful sticky photo albums. Ugh. There must be a way to remove the photo without damaging it. Any clue?
