Fred, Bessie, Evelyn, Ed and Gerry Seaver in About 1920 in Leominster, Mass. -- Post 811 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 probably taken in Leominster, Massachusetts in about 1920 (I'm guessing that the little girl is about age 2-3). The setting may be the Seaver family home at 290 Central Street in Leominster.

The people in the picture are (left to right):

* Roy Mansour (in back, I have no clue who he is - a boyfriend of Evelyn perhaps?)
* Edward Richmond Seaver (in front, 1913-2004, son of Fred and Bess Seaver, my uncle)
* Frederick Walton Seaver (in back, 1876-1942, my grandfather)
* Alma Bessie (Richmond) Seaver (in back, 1882-1962, my grandmother)
* Geraldine Seaver (in front, 1917-2007, daughter of Fred and Bess Seaver, my aunt)
* Evelyn Seaver (in back, 1903-1978, daughter of Fred and Bess Seaver, my aunt).

I have no pictures of the complete Fred and Bessie (Richmond) Seaver family with all of their children.

I had no clue who the fellow on the left was until I saw the picture in Aunt Gerry's album labeled with the name Roy Mansour. He looks pretty dapper, doesn't he? Is he trying to curry favor with Fred by wearing the same type of hat?

This photograph is in the possession of Randy Seaver, and was obtained from the Seaver family photograph collection handed down by his parents.  
This photograph is part of my family history.  I colorized it using the MyHeritage photo tools.
