LENNIE MAE (FLOYD) ROSS IN THE GARDEN

This photo of my grandmother, Lennie Mae (Floyd) Ross is a complement to my last posting where her son, David is also featured in the Ross family garden.

Granny Ross is around forty-eight years old in this picture. Every time I've looked at it I think she looks much older. Maybe I also looked older when I was forty-eight!

If any of my cousins or siblings know who took these photos, please let me know.  I would love to add that tidbit to my writings about our Ross ancestors.

  1. I think our ancestors looked older than we did at the same age. Maybe it's the hair or clothes but I also think they didn't take care of themselves like we do today. I enjoy your pictures and stories.

  2. As first time visitor to your blog I find it to be most professional and very interesting to living descendants to learn something of their ancestors lives and histories. And your great pictures and documentation (provided annotations) give much validity to your work. Will continue to visit often.
