1942



Mother
May 27, 1942

19 years old

She is at a train station but I'm not sure where. The ticket counter can be seen through the front door.

The lower right corner which would show her married name has been torn off. My sister and I found many pictures like that which made us wonder if she had been married before and if our dad was our "real" dad. It wasn't until many years later that she finally told us the truth. It didn't matter to my sister and I - dad was dad. It did matter to our younger brother though and he looked up our birthdad before he went to Viet Nam.

The back of the picture says Peoples Drug Stores which was eventually acquired by CVS.
