February families

These are more from my CD, mentioned here. Don't forget to click on the photos.

Here's a lovely family with, it looks like, grandma visiting.  There's a cool plaid tie, and a couple of odd (to me) "bow ties" made of string.

 

Here's a lovely rural family with mom, dad, and seven children. I love the candid smiles and character.

Some gorgeous new photos!

These are from my CD, mentioned here. Don't forget to click on the photos to see them in all their beauty!

The first one is obviously a posed photo with actors, but it still counts to me! Looks like Grandma is visiting......


A family with 12 lovely children. I wish I knew more about them. Were they as pleasant as they look?


The dad in this photo looks just like my mom's younger cousin, our neighbour in my teen years.


Oh, so CUTE!

Nebraska families

Here are some links to some absolutely beautiful photos of larger families. I can't post the pictures as they are copyright, but they are worth clicking on the links! Most of them include a lot of family history too, which is wonderful! I wish I could make tiny thumbnails to give a taste of them but I don't know how.

Bernard Soester family

Charles Dallegge family

Carl Hickstein family

Clara Zeilinger family, four generations

Going from facial similarities, I believe many to most of these are siblings.

It's a photo of John Binkley, his wife, Mary Elizabeth Henson Binkley, and their family. Center back is Barney Rice Binkley. The 2 babies and the 2 young girls are John and Mary's grandchildren. This leaves me to count 7 siblings in this photo.

This is the Milton & Lucinda Chapman family. I believe the interpretation of the writing on the back would be that the children's names are Myrtle (married name Cummings), William, Cyrus, & Oscar. The photo was taken in Britt, IA.

More unnamed families

More photos from my CD





The children above look kind of like a posed 1-room school group, but so many of them look VERY alike! The boys in overalls must be twins and a brother, and most of the others look so alike as to be siblings to them also.
