The Lilley Farm

Where is this farm located? Does it still exist? 

Mom and Ray

Pauline Caecilia SMITH Parker with son, Raymond Charles Parker, Jr.

This photo display is much larger than the 2 x 2 photo I discovered yesterday. It had slipped inside some portrait holders in the box of pictures dad gave me in 1982 when we visited the farm. He went through some of the pictures and indentified people in them that he knew, remembered at the time, which was very helpful. Earl made pencil notes on them, bless his heart--no way would I have remembered.

Anyway, I was scanning pictures from the box, yesterday, and this slipped out onto the rest. Immediately, a charming picture, I took a closer look. I am fairly certain it is mom and Ray. I think it is the earliest shot of Ray that I have.

What do you think?

I hope this works for you. I can transfer the other pictures, as I get them scanned to our computer, to this site and we can talk about them, if you like.

Hugs, from me.
