My Grandfather as a Young Man
I found this photo recently in my mother’s archive, My grandfather is with his 3 daughters in 1923, At that time the family was living in Omaha Nebraska. My mother is the 11 year o;d on the right.
I have titled this to indicate my grandfather was young but that’s a relative term. Actually he was almost 50 in 1923, But my image of him has always been of him as an older man in his 70’s and early 80’s – when I knew him,
a bit blurred but this is a photo of my grandfather in 1912 when he was in his mid-30’s.

I found this photo in an old calendar/book that my mother had. This happy fellow is one of my brother’s grandsons. We’ve never met.
Mrs Dalloway
Mrs Dalloway, written by Virginia Woolf in the early 1920’s. I can’t help but compass this cover with the photo of my mother Dorothy and her sister Elizabeth (Libby). The sisters were traveling in England and Scotland in 1934.

My Mother’s Photos
My mother liked to go on cruises. I wonder where this photo was taken. I want to say somewhere in the Baltic but I could be wildly wrong. I wish she had identified her photos in some way. I’m left to guess and look for clues. My mother passed almost 20 years ago and I still have a lot of her archive to go through.
