Some more pictures

This is a great picture of Grandma. Donna says she used to go to the store with her hair in rollers. Barbara is hidden next, I think. And I think that is my mom in the background.
This is Peter Affleck Clayton with his third wife Constance.
This is Peter Affleck Clayton with his first wife Agnes, who was Grandpa's mother.

Grandpa's family: 2nd wife Helen and her son John in front of her. Grandpa's brothers Ted and Byron, Grandpa is in the back on the right.

I think they are great pictures!

Treasure Trove of Pictures


Some pictures of Grandma that you might not have seen. Apparently Grandma has been searching for them and had forgotten that I had borrowed them. I will be FedExing them tomorrow. In the photo on the left she is 18 years old, 16 in the photo on the right.

A side of Grandma that I've not seen - in costume. She performed in a church production of the Mikado in the 70's sometime. Grandma is the indian on the right.

Guess Who?



Anyone know who this pretty baby is?



Aren't these kids so cute!?! I love the saddle shoes and the suspenders holding Lynn's pants up past his waist. From the left: Joan holding Alice, Barbara and Lynn. 1947.










The baby in the black and white photo is Joan!
