  1. Aw, they are both so pretty! I wouldn't be surprise if they were sisters or close cousins.

    And that is one fancy porch railing too!

    1. I hadn't even noticed the porch, but you're right. That's a fancy porch!

  2. Doing some searching around - It appears Donald G. had a sister Lelia Grey Armstrong nee Schnabel (1901-1985) who might be pictured here. Donald also had a number of cousins living "back home" in Ohio. His uncle. John W. Schnabel (I think) has a write up here:

    I see there is an oil refinery connection even there.

    1. I will have to more closely look at the adult women in the collection to see if I find anyone who might be one of these fair young ladies.

  4. Oh, those huge hair bows! I just can't imagine why they were so popular. Simple and easy, I guess. Fine series.

    1. A category for sure. Not book worthy, but a category.
