I do not know when I received these photos, unless it was when my parents moved with us to Wyoming in December 2004.
I am thinking that this picture was not taken at the family's home, but at a friend's house. I have no idea whose dog is pictured with: Winnifred (left), Ione (middle) Lenoir (right), Maple Park, Illinois, 1916.
In the picture below Harry Webber is standing, Ione (Billie, 10 months, is sitting on the stool), Lenoir (Bobbie, 2 years old or so is in the middle) and Winnifred (Aunt Fred, is standing, behind Bobbie). This picture was hanging on the wall at the bottom of the stairs at the Miracle Street house in Casper Wyoming.
I am not sure if Harry Webber was a relative or a friend of the family. I have tried to find him in Ancestry and did find a Harold Webber who was born in 1896 and was living in La Salle, Illinois when he registered for draft for the World War 1. Supposedly he was killed during the war.
This picture was taken at the Weber Farm in Bristol Illinois. It is of Ione and the dog Bill. I do not know the date it was taken. I am also thinking that the dog in the picture was from the farm. Or maybe the Leonards purchased the dog from the Webers.
I am assuming that this picture of the 3 girls is at their home. It was probably during winter. I only say that because of the coats, hats and the muff that Aunt Billie is hold with her hands. As we look at the picture, I believe that Lenoir (Bobbie, is on the left), Winnifred (Fred, is in the center) and Ione (Billie, is on the right).
This picture might have been taken on either the girl's, or maybe their Grandmother Olive Pruitt's front porch. Winniefred, or Aunt Fred as I knew her, is on the left. My Grandmother Lenoir, also known as Bobbie, is on the right.
The picture below is of our relatives and ancestors. The names of the people listed were on the back of the photo. In the front row, left to right is:
Marian Woodstock, Alaric Fisher, Leo Carpenter, Louis Carpenter, Lyle Woodstock
In the back row left to right:
Lenoir Leonard [Bobbie, my mother's mother], Ione Leonard [Aunt Billie], Jay Fisher, Cleo Carpenter, Winnifred Leonard [Aunt Fred].
The only people that I can identity in this picture are: Ione (Aunt Billie on the far left), Lenoir (Grandmother Bobbie, 3rd from left), Winnifred 4th from left). I only know these names as related to the picture because they were written on the back.
I do not know the exact date or place that this picture of Lenoir (Bobbie) Leonard was taken. I would hazard a guess and say that she was 7 or 8 years old.
I do not know where this picture was taken, but am assuming in Illinois. I do not know, but would guess that the family could have taken a trip to Wisconsin to see family and it could have been taken there. Winnie Carpenter Leonard, also known as Great Grandma Leonard is the adult standing. Left to right Lenoir (Bobbie is standing), Winnifred (Fred) is sitting in the foreground, and Ione (Billie) is on the right in the picture. Maybe it was a Father's Day gift?
The 2 pictures below are of: Winnie Gladys Carpenter Leonard (alone).
The picture below the first is of: Lenoir (Bobbie, standing to the right of the picture), Olive Fisher Leonard Pruitt, (center), and Winnifred (Fred, who is sitting). They are on the same porch that was in the picture above.
Winnifred (Fred) and Lenoir (Bobbie) Leonard (left to right). I think this was taken before Aunt Billie was born.
