Booth House
The home my Maternal Grandparents lived in from the 1940's-1965.
Before they bought their little home and aluminum Christmas Tree
I showed you a couple of weeks ago.
It is owned now by Eastern IL University
My Grandparents lived on one side and Miss Mary Josephine Booth lived on the other.
My Maternal Grandparents returned to Charleston in 1939.
Unlike my Paternal Grandparents they did not take as many pictures until my brother and I came along.

Memories of my first Christmas's
The house is not a home now, but it was a place of warmth, love and happiness at one time.
Hope you enjoy the flashback pictures.

Ann, I always love seeing your pictures. You sure have some good ones. My family never owned a camera , so there's very few pictures of my siblings and me. Or even our parents. Blessings to you and your loved ones for a glorious Christmas, xoxo,Susie
These photos could easily have been ones from my life in Palm Beach. The one that really brought back memories of times of old was the one with the info written at the top. I would say half of my vintage photos have that important shorthand at the top. Loved see you as a child. One of these day I need to do a flashback of me. My sister was 12 years older so I have few of us together. Thanks for sharing, Ann. g
Joyous Christmas memories!
Such wonderful memories and now so nicely preserved here on the blog and I would image that you have many family members who are glad that you have posted them. Merry Christmas to you, Ann.
These are wonderful keepsakes of happy times gone by. Such fun to have a little glimpse into these days. I will have to take more photos of my kids on Christmas Day so they too will have special memories. Merry Christmas Ann!

Another wonderful post Ann! How great is it that you have 4 generation photos. Oh my, I had a very similar cowgirl outfit as a Christmas gift one year...I'm feeling deja vu here, lol.
Have a Merry & Blessed Christmas! Hugs, Pam
Hi Ann, thanks for sharing more of your precious family photos and memories with us, I always enjoy them. Striking quite a pose there in your cowgirl outfit, so very cute!
Wishing you and yours a blessed and happy Christmas!

These pics are precious! Thanks for sharing and I hope that you have a wonderful holiday, Ann.
I simply love seeing your family pictures
I really think the picture of you and your brother with your arms on each others shoulders is the most precious of them all.
