My Forefathers, Mothers, Brothers and Sisters

Welcome!

Welcome to my genealogy blog where I am putting on pictures that I have acquired of my family. Along with any history that I find on them. If I have met that person and can remember something about them, then I will add that story too!
Some of our family names are: Utterback, McKenzie, Armstrong, Riggs, Ralston, Parker, Maupin, Dilbeck, Leister, Smith, Clough, Bowyer, McPherson, Andrews, Howard and Allen. I will only be putting on those last names up to my fourth generation, as you will see in the tabs. If I get too many last name of a different generation, I might need to put that on also. Example: Dilbecks.
I am glad ya'll came a visiting and hope to see ya back!
Thanks for stopping by!

Forgotten Foto Friday #11

Even though there are names on some of these pictures, I do not know who they are. So, I thought I would share with you some of my mother’s classmates at the end of the school year – 1946. She went to Garfield High School in East Los Angeles. If you have parents or grandparents around this time period, maybe you might know of these people. If not, you can see what things looked like then. Isn't it fun to look backwards in time?

Most of the pictures are very light, so I tried to darken them just a little, you can hopefully see the faces better. Enjoy!

My mom, Emma June Armstrong, on left and a friend of her's. No name was on the back of this picture.

On the back of this picture it says, from left to right: Doug, Bob 3 ( I am thinking that there were 3 different Bob's that they knew, so they numbered them. My Uncle Bob being #1.), Cecil and Tony. I remember my mom and Uncle Bob talking about Cecil.

Iggy Carmack and Patsy.

On the back of this picture I thought it was interesting that is says: "Intelligence of summer 1946." If you know of these people, please comment. Thanks.
