Early Family Photos

No one in my immediate family had a camera or took any pictures. And as my mother grew older, she would not ALLOW pictures to be taken. Last week I received a letter from my Grandfather Sark's neighbor, Mille Fitzgerald ( now Thompson) saying that she was cleaning out her photo album and came across some pictures that she thought I might like to have. Oh my, did I want those pictures. I have no pictures of Black Star, my horse or really anything else. Below are 3 of the pictures that I have scanned and repaired... holes were torn when the pictures were removed. Such a wonderful gift... thank you, Millie!

PS The middle picture has the Fitzgerald house in the background and I think Millie's mother is looking out the window. The last picture was taken in the Fitzgerald side yard. This shows the center of Lilly Chapel, Madison County, Ohio.
