Thanks for the blog updates, Billy. I enjoy them very much!
Hey,
I have some old photos and I think they are photos of the Wardle
family. My grandmother was very particular about labeling her own photos
with names and dates, but when she passed away we found an old box full
of pictures that we think may have been given to Grandma when some
other relative died. Because the pictures aren’t labeled, we know they
didn’t start out in Grandma’s possession. She may have been given them
after her eyesight had diminished to the point of not being able to see
who the people in the photos were.
Two of the
photos are of the same teenaged girl. One has “Junius” written on the
back, and one has “Mintia” written on the back. Since these are two of
Isaac Wardle’s children with Martha Egbert, I am guessing that the young
girl in the photo is Etta May Wardle, the youngest sister in that
branch of the family. This leads me to believe that many of the other
photos in the box are of the Wardle family. Some are of babies and will
probably never be identified, but some are of adults; weddings,
graduations, etc. I’m attaching a couple of them. If you recognize any
of the people in them could you let me know?

PS-
Grandma is Crilla Aldura Myers Egbert, who is the daughter of Annie May
Butterfield Myers, who is the daughter of Crilla Wardle Butterfield,
who is one of Isaac Wardle’s daughter with Martha Egbert.

This pictures say Beckstead? on the back |

This picture also says Beckstead? |
This picture has names, but I am not sure who they are? The back says "Rose and her daughter." It then adds Wineger? It looks like "Rose and her daughter" is written by my grandmother, and "Wineger" by my father. This is corrected as Rose Powell Wardle and her daughter Fern Wardle White.
