South Afton Sunday School 1929

"Compliments to Mothers
South Afton Sunday School
Mother's Day 1929"
What a great photo! Another slice of life for the Kennington family. You'll want to pull your magnifying glass out for this one.

  • George, who was serving as Bishop, is second from the left with Garth next to him in a striped tie.
  • Audine and Forrest are on the front row right above the "SOU" in "South". She has her hands clasped and he is in a dark sweater with a white shirt.
  • Gwen is directly above Forrest 4 rows with her head cocked to our right.
  • Cliss and Berniece are to her right - same row (on the left of the pillar).
  • Bev is right below them and looks just like Audine, only bigger.
  • Is that Gordon on the left of Garth - dark hair parted in the middle? If not, how about the boy over the top of the little boy in the bow tie on the front row - barely forehead and eyes showing.The little boy above Forrest in the checked sweater is dressed in a simular way to Forrest ; could that be Gordon? Any one able to help with that? Maybe Jeri can look?
  • I couldn't find Martha, then it dawned on me that she would have been home with the new baby, Craig, just a few weeks old.

Dad (Gordon) looked at the picture but was unable to find himself. He remembers he had his hair held back with an elastic. He laughed and said he was a "weird" kid at that time.

I wonder if he is the little boy in sun glasses? That boy's hair looks as though it's held back with an elastic.
