Mom has her hands on my shoulders. The teenager is my cousin Jimmy. His life ended up bad. The kid on the end is my kid brother Karl.

Ah cliff you were a cutey. And so was your grandmother in her day. I bet she was turning the males heads at 16. If she got out of the house back then.
Wonderful pictures.
Our families look alike. Those were the days, weren't they?
I'll have to post some pictures of my family one day. The common feel will be astounding.

Great photo Cliff. The ladies sure did love their hats in the early 1900s. I never ever knew my grannie to go out without one. And she had some pretty weird creations.

I know. And she was a sharecropper. They didn't have any money, but she had some yellow boots!

The dress was probably white as it was what most unmarried girls wore for photographs then.The photographers back then would color the picture any color the customer wanted. It really is a cool picture.

I thought so. She did tell Momma that they were actually yellow boots. I don't know about the dress.
