Alice and Kids

These are the last 2 photos in the second album. 

Baby Dot and her pull toy

No date, but likely 1918

Alice, top right, with a passel of kids

Elwood J. is to the right of Alice. Is that his sister Betty in front?

My guess is that this photo is from around 1932.

****************

The next batch of 75 or so photos I'll post are loose, not pasted in albums. Most of them have helpful info on their backs, which means I can arrange them by decade, so the images will appear in something like chronological order for a change, and some will even be in color. The photos date from the 1890's (Elwood G.'s baby photo) to the late 1950s/early 1960s—when Grandma Alice moved to her home in Fanwood, New Jersey. 

Baby Bobby

Sorry for the bad crops on these. The album page is warped and the photos were pasted on crooked. 

Bobby and chickens 

No dates on any of these.

 Bobby in his baby buggy, with horses

Bobby and his daddy, Jim McDonough

Baby Joe and More

 This photo of Alice's younger brother Joe was likely taken in 1913 or 1914. 

 A cut-out of the family car, no date

No names, no date on this one. 

Ruth & Dot, Anita & Bobby

Ruth and Dot, no date

 Anita and Bobby, no date

Ann Fischer, 1920

Dotty & Alice, 1918

We are reaching the end of the second album. 

The photos on these pages are in bad shape—creased, spotted, and faded.

 Alice, 1918

Dotty, no date

Alice and Friends, 1918

Back to 1919

We've seen versions of these photos before. 

Ann, Pa, Alice 1919

Clockwise from top left, I think we have 

Mildred, Ann Fischer, Alice, and her older sister Anne

Dot & Ruth Hit the Road

In Grandma's handwriting: "Eva, Ruth, Margaret & Dotty" 

No date

Dot and Joe, Helen and Flo

No dates on these but the first two were most likely take in 1918.

Joe, Dotty, and Helen

Dot (not Ruth; even Grandma got them mixed up.)

This one is a favorite. It's of Helen and Flo @ 1920.

I love their happy, goofy grins and their excellent bathing costumes. 

We saw them all grown up in the blog entries posted on May 15-17.

Baby Bobby

No dates on these photos of Bobby McDonough

 Aunt Mamie and Bobby

Kids, Kids, and More Kids

No dates on these.  

Dot and Ruth, with Easter baskets @ 1925

Sibs and Pups

These photos are from the early 1920s, featuring Alice's four youngest siblings and a couple of cute puppies.

Ruth, Dot, and Helen

 Dot, Ruth, and furry friend

Dot, Joe, and Ruth

Well-Dressed Ladies on the Lawn

No dates on these three photos. My guess is 1918-ish. Alice is on the left in each.
