Ninety-Eight Year Old Family Photo

by Judy Schwartz Haley

This family photo was recently sent to us by a distant relative in Michigan.  It is dated May 14, 1911.

I don’t know anything about most of the people in this photo, but one I know personally.  My grandmother is the infant in the back row to the right.

Allow me to introduce you to my great-grandparents, Lulu and Ira Blakely, and their daughter, my 98-year-old grandmother, Doris.

  I love old pics especially family pics! I think Gem looks like her great, great grandmother!

  That is so cool! I love those old family pics, too. Your grandma was so cute (and yes, I think Gem looks like her).

  What a treasure! I love looking at old pictures from my grandparents and great-grandparents. I only wish they had labeled them better… something I hope to be better at!
