A Baby Buggy?


This picture looks older then the rest of the pictures but there is no date, the back reads "Mary Fitzgerald".

Down On The Farm


There is no information on this picture.

Pet Sheep



On the back of one of these pictures it says Fife Lake Michigan the other says Marjorie Hurst, Martin Hurst, and Pet Sheep.

Tommy Whalen


Tommy Whalen the date written is 1930. I don't know which one is Tommy or who the other people are.

July 4, 1927


This picture has the date of July 4, 1927 and has the names John, Rex, and the same unidentifiable name that I believe is Martin. It looks like John may be holding a pet, which I assume is Rex.
*Updated
John W. (Bingo) Hurst was born in 1903 and I believe that Martin was born in 1921-22 so the age difference between them would be 18-19 years. If this picture was taken in 1927, Martin was 6 and John would have been 24.

Kids On A Tractor


No names or dates.

Same Time and Place?



To me these two pictures both look like they're taken at the same time and place but on the backs they have two different dates, 1927 and Sept. '29. There are no names of the people.

1927


The names on the back of this photo are: Harold H., John H., Carl Clifford, Clarance Harper, John H. and Dave H. It also has the date 1927.

Babe, Lady and John

This reads Babe, Lady and John.

No Names No Dates

September 4, 1932


This picture is labeled Sept. 4, 1932 Babe and Mollie. Again, no mention of the rider's names.

Unknown Photo


This picture doesn't have any writing on the back of it. Not even the names of the horses!

Mollie and Charlie?

This is the front and back of the same photo. To me, the boy sitting on the horse on the left looks like the same boy in the previous picture posted that I thought was labeled Moot. I can't tell from this handwriting what the name is but the other names look like Mary E, Marjorie, and John. These would be Grandpa's (William F.) siblings, maybe the name that's unreadable is a nickname for someone? Also, you can see this picture was developed at "The Gurley Studio" in Big Rapids, Michigan.

*Updated
Molly and Charlie must be the names of the horses... the people in the photo (from left to right) are Mary E. Hurst (b. 1913), Martin Hurst (b. 1921-22), Marjorie E. Hurst (b. 1914), and standing is John W. (Bingo) Hurst (b. 1903).

Lady and Babe


The back of this photo reads Lady and Babe (the horses) and Martin.

Chas, Mollie, and Babe


This photo reads Chas (or maybe Charles?) Nellie and Babe. There are no names for any of the people though.

Nellie and Mollie


The back of this photo reads Nellie and Mollie.
