GM Emily, B Stan, Randy, GP Lyle and GGM Georgianna -- Post 805 of (Not So) Wordless Wednesday

I can't help it, I can't do a wordless post! This is one of my favorite photographs: 

This picture was taken, probably by my mother, Betty (Carringer) Seaver, in late 1946 or early 1947. The persons in the photograph are (from left):

* Emily Kemp (Auble) Carringer (1899-1977) - my maternal grandmother, struggling to hold my brother
* Stanley R. Seaver (born 1946) - my brother, held by Emily
* Randy Seaver (born 1943) - moi, on my grandfather's back, and laughing
* Lyle Lawrence Carringer (1891-1976) - my maternal grandfather
* Gerogianna (Kemp) Auble (1868-1952) - my great-grandmother, Emily's mother

I think that this picture was taken in the garden at 2115 30th Street, inside the fence along 30th Street, at 2115 30th Street, near the southwest corner of the house.

I just realized that this photo has four people with the same mitochondrial DNA - me, my brother, my grandmother and my great-grandmother. Unfortunately, I don't have a photograph of Georgianna's mother (Mary Jane (Sovereen) Kemp) or her maternal grandmother (Eliza (Putman) Sovereen).

I really wish that my mother was in this picture. It would then be a true four-generation photograph.

I colorized a black and white photo using the MyHeritage tools. 

This photograph is part of my family history.
