The Genealogy Search

It's time for some Saturday Night fun, the mission below is issued from Randy Seaver at Genea-Musings  http://www.geneamusings.com . The assignment: 1) How old is one of your grandfathers now, or how old would he be if he had lived? Divide this number by 4 and round the number off to a whole number. This is your "roulette number."   2) Use your pedigree charts or your family tree genealogy software program to find the person with that number in your ancestral name list (some people call it an "ahnentafel"). Who is that person? 3) Tell us three facts about that person in your ancestral name list with the "roulette number." 4) Write about it in a blog post on your own blog, in a Facebook note or comment, or as a comment on this blog post. 5) If you do not have a person's name for your "roulette number" then spin the wheel again - pick a grandmother, or yourself, a parent, a favorite aunt or cousin, or even your children! ...

I found this photo among the pictures my Mother had removed from my Grandmother's photo album.  My mother believes that it is her mother on the far left and her step sister Helen Conour's children, along with her mother's step mother Emilie Blank Miottel.. I have doubts about the lady on the right being Emily.  I wonder if the family often had coffee in the backyard or is this is just for fun.  That is not a tea pot - could those children be drinking coffee?
