I adore this photo of my Great-Grandmother Fannie May Longmore.
This photo is of my Grandpa Price's family when he was a little boy. His mother, Ruby, had 3 children under 30 months old. A man once said to her, "My, is this all one family or is it a picnic?" Ruby replied, "It's all one family and it's no picnic!" Sounds like she had a sense of humor!
The youngest child's name was Erma. She died at age 4 of diphtheria. (I actually thought the name Erma was a Hawaiian Island when I was in the 4th grade so that ended up being a silly nickname for me)
This is cute Ruby (mother in the photo above) when she was 3 living in Nephi, Utah. Could she be any sweeter? She had 14 kids in her family. Her father died when she was 15 and so she needed to be a big help to her mother.
This photo reminds me of the previous family photo, only my Grandpa Price is now the dad. My father is the cute blondie.
