This picture showed up in a box of pictures from about 1917.
I think it's a relative. The picture intrigued me. I can't figure out what he is holding in his hand. A riding crop maybe? The back of the picture says:"I send to you this, my souvenir with heartful greetings to you and your family. I will always remember you.
This is a photo of my Great Grandpa and one with my Grandpa. My mom was born in 1921 so it had to be a few years before that.
I love the one with the wagon. Shows how many people lived and worked back then and how rural it was only a few miles from New York City. My great grandpa was a farmer, my grandpa became a stationary engineer and worked in New York keeping the engines running smoothly in an ice cream factory.
In later years the farm was divided among 5 children. Growing up I lived on the piece my grandpa inherited with my mom and dad
My sister sent me this the other day. It's me and Santa. She said how come there wasn't one of her with Santa ! I told her it as because she was a bad girl that
year !LOL
