THANKS again to my distant cousins in Washington who sent more Argle/Fredette pictures. My family and I have enjoyed them so much. Wish Grandma was here to tell us stories about who/what/where.

Veronica is Aunt Monica, my grandma's sister and Uncle Frank. My dad thinks this pic was taken at the stairs of the Cicotte St. house in River Rouge.

Jack and Madeline were siblings of my grandma, and Rhea and Joann were the children of Marion (Aunt Edith's daughter. Aunt Edith was Great -grandma Alice Fredette's sister.)

Marion was Aunt Edith's daughter, and Aunt Monica was grandma's sister. This picture is taken just before 22 September 1917, the day my grandma was born.

Grandma's First Boyfriend

 

Bluie LaFee was my grandma's first boyfriend. He's pictured above, to the right. His sister's name was Midlred and she was the same age as Grandma's sister, Monica. Mildred and Monica would have to push Gram and Bluie in buggies and the older sisters hated it. Grandma told me that Bluie, "...was a nice boy but was full of the devil." Apparently, he had a bad mouth.
