All very fine photographs. I especially like the one of you and your sister with your father - a rather handsome man. I do hope your mother recovered without any lingering effects?
ReplyDeleteDelightful and well worth enlarging for the detail. The youngsters in the second picture share remarkable similarities. Interesting that the two girls died the same year, after a long life.
ReplyDeletegreat photos. One of the things that struck me was how different the photo styles were from generation to generation, but also how similar the children were as they posed for the camera. Good selection.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos with lots of character. I especially like the second which was nicely composed by the photographer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your family history!
