Part One Rye Family Picture Series


Henry Thomas Rye and Julia Olette Olson were married in December of 1908. At the time of this photograph, they had five children. Nora, sitting on her mother's lap, was born in June of 1918.
Rye's had been married 10 years. Compare the pictures of Julia, the bride at 19, and Julia the mother of five, at 29. Look at Henry T at 29 on the wedding picture then at the family picture at 39.
Oliver would turn nine in December
Hilda would turn seven in November
Alice would have turned six in July
Ella would turn three in December
Julia and Henry would extend their family with four more children. Would there be a picture with all of the children with their parent's? Old Trunks does not have a photograph to support it.
As we view the pictures, we will talk about which children are missing.
