(Not So) Wordless Wednesday - Post 97: Emily and her friends

I'm posting family photographs from my collection on Wednesdays, but they won't be wordless Wednesday posts like others do - I simply am incapable of having a wordless post.

I managed to scan about 100 family photographs in the Scanfest in January, and have converted the scanned TIF files to smaller JPGs, cropped and rotated as best I can. Many of these were "new" to my digital photograph collection.

Here is a photograph from the Carringer family collection handed down by my mother in the 1988 to 2002 time period:



Since this photograph has a young girl (the third one from the left) that looks very similar to the girl in Post 96, I think that my grandmother, Emily Kemp Auble, born 19 August 1899, is in this photograph. I'm just not sure which girl she is!

When I first saw this picture, I thought that Emily was the second girl from the left (with the hair bow and the hair part on the left), but if the picture in Post 96 is truly Emily, then she is the third girl from the left.

This photo was probably taken in Chicago, Illinois at a school or playground.
