My Grandma, Mary Maxwell (Mother’s side) at 14 in Edinburgh, Scotland, just before crossing the Atlantic to make a home in Canada. My two year old grandson is named after her.
My Grandma Mary and Grandpa Charles Trites. Grandma was under five feet and Grandpa was six-four. Quite a pair. They came to live with us when they were in their sixties, after retiring from running a mom and pop grocery store (the precursor of a 7/11) in Seattle.

ReplyDeleteI love the smiles and the hats! And that you named your son after your Grandma's maiden name. We did the same with our son. Thanks so much for sharing. :)

Great photos, Karen. I just love family histories...especially families of long ago. I wonder what they will say about all of us in the future....
