Church Group about 1941
Sadly, it was not labeled, though a partial id list has been found. Matt Blackstock (7) is front and center. David (1) (1932–2010) and Will Warren (2) are on the left, Joe (3)and Florence (4) Castle are in the first row standing. Update from Matt Blackstock--4/17/2011--Milton Andrew Maxwell (5), pastor, and either son, Douglas Lee (1938–2009) or Ross Reid (late 1941–)--just to the left. of Matt. This is likely Douglas Maxwell which would put the picture about 1941, consistent with age of Ramon Quirino in the picture. Behind Matt to the right is Melvin Rotsch. Mrs. Robertson is in the black dress, standing just to the left of the tree, Lois Lay is just in front of her seated with a white fur collar--with her brother, Coy Lay. Marian Lay, their mother, is in the back to the left of the tree. Just below and to the left of the church plaque is Roger Williams, head trustee. Elisabeth Ash, (Matt's aunt), is 3rd from the right. and to her left is Mrs. Ernst Walter “Johanna” Wupperman. Eleanor Warren, wife of Will and mother of David, is to the right of the tree in the middle, about 6 to the right, with a black hat at a rakish angle.
