Maggie Ramsden’s wedding

I have been working on this one, amidst the busywork of life and school. The original had scribbling ALL over the faces…

Maggie was my Great Grandpa Bill’s sister (apparently Bill was often chosen to be in weddings and is standing behind the groom here). : )

“Emma Ramsden’s wedding”

Emma was my Great Grandfather Bill’s sister (in this photo Bill is standing in back of the groom), and was the only centenarian in my family in recently-recorded history – she died at 101 years of age.

I obtained a photo of this lightly scribbled-on picture yesterday, when I visited my deceased Grandma Ramsden’s cousins.

2) Great Grandma Viola working in Dayton’s restaurant in Dinkytown
3) Grandma Loretta at Como Park

One of the photos I fixed today is of my Great Great Uncle Chet LeVoir’s wedding – he is on the far right. He was my Great Grandmother Viola LeVoir (Ramsden)’s brother. : )
