Back of unknown woman sitting. However, since this says "Douglas", and George I and Lizzie lived in Douglas in the 1865-1867 timeframe, that this photo is roughly from that time. |
 |
Unknown, but definitely related to unknown teen above (if not the same person only younger) Metal plate. |
 |
No description at all. Darker (of two) prints of this photo. Child sitting on someones lap. |
 |
Unknown child. |
 |
From appearances, the three leftmost men in the back row and the man sitting
on right end, sitting on the ground (front row) may be brothers.
Likewise the front row, left most, front row, 3rd person (hands clasped
about right leg) and back row, right most may be brothers. No identities known for sure. |

Back side of the "Camp Modoc - 1908" picture postcard Addressed to Mr. George Grennis, 663 Pomeroy St. Kenosha, WI.

S&J Drop me a postal so I'll know you got this. C. |
|
 |
The man on the left, middle row, appears to be related to the leftmost man, front row of the Camp Modoc photo. Also, the man wearing the black bow tie in the back row, center, seems to resemble J.G. Earhuff (dorothy's grandfather) | |
 |
Back of above photo. Either "92" or "02". Unclear if this is random scribbling, or a year. | |
 |
Definitely the "Camp Modoc" crew, with wives or girlfriends. | |

Translation assistance by Ellen Perkins Script is: Til Anne Gregersen! Lad intet dig i Bonnen hindre Til Fader tidt at ile hen; Jblandt die og da vil erindre En dig oprigtag trofast Ven Iver(Hard to make out last name) This is formal written Norwegian; the literal translation is: Let nithin you in prayer prevent to Father often rush toward Occasionally and and then remember One your sincer faithful friend. Which translates to: Let nothing prevent you from praying Rush frequently to God. This will help you to keep in mind a faithful steady friend. Iver(the friend being God) Note: Anne Gregersen married Ole Tostenson. |

The photo on the right was inside the paper jacket, so what was seen is the left column. All individuals unknown. Pretty whimsical picture, though. Back row, left seems to be carrying a rifle (possibly a cane), 2nd from left is holding a broom; 3rd from left is holding a frothy cup (beer?). The barrel says "Milk on TAP". |
 |
 |
Ole Hanson. |
 |
 |
Might this be a photo of Arendal? The blur in the foreground is presumably a moving pedestrian (who wasn't willing to stay still for the long exposure) |

A letter to Dorothy from the doctor who delivered Bea & Pat:
Dear Mrs. Gorton, Thank you very much for the beautiful leter which reached me last evening. I shall always cherish it - along with the wonderful letter which Mr. Gorton sent me after your first little girl was born. Not only did your letter add to the pleasure of |
 |
my day - but - the knowledge of your confidence in me - and your
kindness and underdstanding - win or lose - does something to me
which is exceedingly difficult to put into words. It was wonderful to have you and the babies come along so nicely - and it is to see them grow and develeep [develop] - However, I am confident that it was a part of the plan that |
 |
the prayers - of all - were answered. Thank you again - for your kindness and thoughtfulness and your cooperation. Sincerely, Beatrise O. Jones [perhaps 'Q'?] The letter seems to me to imply complications and/or that it was not an easy delivery? |

 |
Christmas photo/card, dated Dec. 1924 (but it seems unlikely that the photo was taken in December...) |
 |
And all of the signatures on the back. The chopped off content on the right hand side says: "Delay unavoidable" |
 |
A photo postcard: James on the left and Charles on the right. The identities of the two women are unknown. |
 |
Charles and George III, year unknown. |
 |
Buildings in Cement, OK. Probably "Gortonville" area. Based upon the map on the inside front of George III's book, the well is probably the No. 1 Surbeck (oil) well, or possibly the No. 1 Wade (gas) well. |
 |
Probably from March, 1921. A cropped version of this photo exists
in George III's book, with the caption "Breaking a road through the drifts."
Yes, the fuzzy/obscured thing on the left is a car. Someone was moving pretty quickly when they hit the drift. It also seems that there is someone watching from the door of the office building (marked "A"). |

This is a truly weird "photo"; Date unknown. Presumably Harold Lains. The woman doesn't appear to be Charlotte. Click on it and look carefully. They aren't standing at the corner of a house. It's two separate photos cut and connected, and a photograph taken of the joined result. |

Florence on the left, and Maybelle. Photo taken on Maybelle's birthday,
Jan 21, 1961. She worked for Dotty helping with cooking, baking &
various household chores from 1946 until the late 1960s or possibly early
1970s. Rick remembers a couple of things: She was always a cheerful soul, happily chatting with [this] inquisitive small boy and explaining "whatcher doing?" watching her knead bread (and the smell of the bread), homemade apple butter on said bread, fresh out of the oven. She waddled, with a noticable side-to-side gait, rather than walking. She lived on Green Bay Road on the east side about half a mile to a mile south of Highway C. I recall being in the car when mom occasionally picked her up or dropped her off. |
