Little Jimmy Leonard


This was Roger's grandfather....on his mother's side of the family.  I don't know how old he was then.  I don't know if he was married to Grammy or if it was before they married.  Things I wish I had asked.  He had passed away before I met Roger, but I knew his grandmother.

  2. I love the nostalgia in this photo!!!
    Mysteries of family members when doing research, well....it always lead me in the directions of MORE genealogy. Eventually, I had composed a 300 page book on both sides of Bud's and my family.

    Great photo today Rose.

  10. Oh man, don't you wish you knew more about him? My grandmother was born in 1884 and I wish I had asked her to tell me stories about when she was small. I think of her a lot and remember the times I spent with her. I love this picture.
