Here's Mom's group 77 Thanksgivings ago. Our 94-year-old mother will be dining at Kell Avenue in Bloomington, Minnesota today. We'll be dropping by shortly to look at all the preparations and share some gratitude with the gang. We'll be sure to show Mom this picture and see if it triggers anything. Mom was 18 in this photo, standing behind her little sister Kay. Her brother Richard and her parents are pictured, but not her brothers Bayard and Ralph, nor her sister Dorothy. Cousin Faith thinks her Mom (Richard's wife Esther) might have taken the picture.
We don't know where Mom's 1937 Thanksgiving took place, (that's her on the upper right) but here's our cousin Faith's IDs: From l to r, Richard Manley Brown, unknown person, Jessie Wendelken Brown, Paul Manley Brown, Dora Foss Isakson, unknown - (could this be great aunt Florence Wendelken?), Frances Dorthy Isakson (Dumpling), Katherine Bonita Brown, and Jessie Beverly Brown.
