In April 2020 I asked AG in an email for a random memory of her father - i.e. of Fred, the middle of the 5 Stokey Siblings.. She responded with the two pictures below, saying:
How about these old pictures? They show both me and my father looking happy. I don't remember the pictures being taken but I remember being very fond of them when I was about 3. That's why the corners look chewed. The background is my grandparents' (mother's parents') lawn. How old would you guess I was? Leaves are on the trees so I would have been either a few months more than 1 yr, or a bit more than 2. My mother died in Nov. 1937, when I was 18 months old, so I'm wondering if it was the summer before that or after that?
I'm betting she's a little past her second birthday in these pictures, which would make it the summer of 1938.
