    John Edward (paternal grandfather)
    Born July 12, 1910 ~ Died July 26, 1989

    Annette Regina
    Born December 24, 1911 ~ Died May 28, 2004

    The photos were taken when they were "courting". They married in 1932 and had six children. My grandfather kept the original photo of my grandmother inside his wallet where it was found upon his passing and copies were made.

      Hi,
      Love the photos.
      Although its a snap shot of an era,there is something very modern about them both,
      I think because there essence is captured here,they both look real cheeky,especially
      your grandmother.
      .Cheers.

      I can see why John Edward kept the photo in his wallet. Lovely photos.

      Your grandmother looks very 2000s. Prtobably because of her nice white, straight teeth! Lovely picture. Thanks for posting.
