Cousins Emily, Georgianna and Bessie -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #856

  This is one of my favorite and most priceless family photographs: 


This photograph was taken in about 1945 based on the ages of the people at that time.  It was probably taken in the Lyle and Emily Carringer backyard at 2130 Fern Street in San Digo, California.

The persons in this photograph are, from the left:

*  Emily Kemp (Auble) Carringer (1899-1977), my maternal grandmother.
*  Georgianna (Kemp) Auble (1868-1952), Emily's mother and my great-grandmother
*  George William "Will" Pentecost (1869-1953), husband of Bessie (Auble) Pentecost.
*  Bessie (Auble) Pentecost (1881-1969), wife of Will Pentecost and a first cousin of Emily Kemp (Auble) Carringer.
*  Lyle Lawrence Carringer (1891-1976), husband of Emily Kemp (Auble) Carringer.

Emily (Auble) Carringer corresponded with Bessie all of her life - I wish I had the letters!  The Pentecosts resided in Whittie, California and the two families visited several times a year.

This photograph is a part of my family history.  The MyHeritage Photo tools were used to create the color photograph above.  The color of the clothes may not be true.
