They were all Julies cats. She really loved them, we normally tried to beat her to the tree in the backyard to get one of them but it was hard to get one away from her (Julie) Ha Ha. I think thats why I don’t like cats all that well today. Thanks Julie!!! But, we love you anyway. Danny
Janie, that is not Mark, that is Linda Putnam’s brother Billy. Beatrice married Fred a month before she turned 18. She was married long before her brother Felix, and her children are older. Linda and Carolyn Jean are about the same age I think.Carolyn Jean is the daughter of brother(Bud)Erhardt Sommerer. Carolyn Jean and Leon are not on this picture.
At first glance I thought Bill and Peter were father ans son that were visiting that day!!ha!They looked like the were of Hispanic decent!! Upon closer look I do recognize them.
I think Bill either has something in his mouth or is slightly sticking his tongue out (takes after Grampa). It looks like Bill except for the lips. I wonder if he was standing on a box or something. He sure looks extra tall. Julie he might be standing on your kitten.
You are probably right but he sure looks like Mark did at that age. Maybe cousins tend to favor each other. I sure see Felix in him. Probably the glasses help.

Julie Baker says
Where is my kitten??
Lloyd Jr. says
Yeah, it is strange that you wouldn’t have a kitten in hand. Can you name the kittens?
Julie Baker says
They never had names. Poor things.
Aunt Lolly says
three is David, and five is scottie, nine is Peter, ten is Mark. That would be my guess.
cleo says
14 is Billy Putnam. I’m glad he is on this picture. He missed the last one. He was in the service I think at that time.
cleo says
number 10 is Mark and number 5 is his little brother Scottie.This is the only picture where cathy Jane is one of the tallest girls.
Naomi Vetter says
Didn’t they all grow into some amazing individuals!!!
Julie Baker says
maybe 2 is david. 3 is jimmy.
Aunt Lolly says
Yes two is David, I got my numbers mixed up, and three is Jimmy. Number 14 sure doesn’t look much like Billy. It almost has to be though.

Julie Baker says
You boys were to busy blowing up a dead snake with firecrackers in the barnyard to bother with cats!
Jane says
Cleo, I don’t see Billy. I see Mark as the tall one in the back and Scott. I really don’t see Billy in the picture.

Naomi Vetter says
Pete, is that a camera hanging from your neck, foretelling that you would be a great Capitol photographer some day?
Danny Sommerer says
You win Pete, you get a beer prize from Lolly. That is if she has any left from her afternoon drinking. Ha Ha.
Congratulations to U. Louie and A. Naomi for your 50th wedding anniversary. That was really a nice way for your kids to honor you both.
