John Rowley Van Sickle. 1910-2004
My mother’s elder brother. My Uncle John.
Seated on my Grandmother Charlotte Rowley Van Sickle
From my grandmother’s album . Durand Illinois.
Front row: Paul Van Sickle, Mary Hendricks on Roy Hendricks, Marian Van Sickle Hendricks, Elizabeth Van Sickle, Kathryn Van Sickle, Rhea Van Sickle holding Martha Van Sickle
Back row: John R. Van Sickle, John B. Van Sickle standing in front of Robert Van Sickle and Judd Van Sickle
My grandmother Charlotte must have taken the photo.
My mother Marian standing on wall on the the left and her brother Robert seated below her. Not sure who the other women are.
I tried to see if one was their mother, my grandmother. They must have taken their brother John to Boy Scout Camp.
I might discover I’ve posted this pic previously.
She’s on the left in her ruffled dress, her brother Robert next to her, then their mother Charlotte in the cloche hat, her brother John and their father Judd. I’m guessing on the date .
Throwback Thursday from the archives.
I was trying to get a photo of the three grandkids in 2005.
I let them press the shutter release button on the cable.
All three of them will be in high school this fall. ( Well, in a couple of weeks! )
A hundred years ago.
