I love these old photos of my family.
The writing on the back says "Courchene's First Car" with no date, but after a little google search for this car and knowing that one of the two little boys is my grandfather born in 1910, I'm guessing this photo was taken in 1915. This photograph might be the oldest thing I own.
My grandfather Ralph and his brother Ray with their father Anner. I love the suit, again this would be sometime between 1915-1918 in Chicago.
Ralph in the Army. Ralph and Eleanor
Although you cannot see a lot in the second picture, I can just imagine the cold, snowy Chicago streets.
