1937-1
( comments) Someone wrote on back "Feb 1937" No other info
1937-2
( comments) On back "Mildred Johnson 1937" There is a Mildred Erickson on the Hanson side of the family, but I don't know if this is her (born 1921) Goes with next photo
1937-3
( comments) No info, but clearly goes with previous photo. Mildred Johnson, Irene 1937
1937-4
( comments) No info other than this is a 1943 reprint. However it clearly is taken the same time as the previous photo. Hence 1937 with Irene
1937-5
( comments) Mom wrote on back "Yours truly in a snowbank Farm Nelson, Minnesota Winter '36 - 37" Assume it goes with previous snow photos. So use 1937.
1937-6
( comments) On back "January 31, 1937." On a duplicate of this photo (ZL3 079 - now discarded Mom wrote on back " Arnold and Doug Winter 1936 - 37" But Dad labeled it "Doug and Carl - 1937" I don't know an Arnold, although it is possible that Carl's middle name is Arnold. I believe Doug is on the right, I am going to assume Dad is correct and it is Carl. Jan 31,1937.
1937-7
( comments) no info, but I think this is Doug. See previous photo - the belt buckle matches. Assume same date as previous - Jan 31, 1937.
1937-8
( comments) No info, but this is Howard. Guess 1937.
1937-9
( comments) Dad labeled "Allen" I am guessing 1937
1937-10
( comments) Dad labeled the next 3 photos as "Pix taken for H.S. Annual" This one is "Dwayne Land - Herb Miers" On a duplicate of this photo in ZL5 Dad wrote "Dwayne Landon and Herb Olson" One of them has 1937 on them so this is spring 1937
1937-11
( comments) Dad labeled "Len Olson - Carl Johnson" Carl on right Spring 1937
1937-12
( comments) Dad labeled "Al's 24 Model "T" Ford" I think that is Liberty School in background. Thus Allen is on the road to the cemetery here (note how narrow). On a 1943 reprint of this photo Dad labeled "24 Ford - 1st car $18 ?" Spring 1937.
1937-13
( comments) On back "Brown .... Jul 1 1943" So this is a reprint of earlier photo. At this point Irene appears to insert random photos that perhaps came from Allen. I don't know who this is `Maybe goes with next photo of Allen shooting rifle. One of the next pictures was a duplicate of a photo made for Allen's High School Yearbook so assume these are also Yearbook 1937.
1937-14
( comments) Jun 29 1943 reprint. Allen One of the 1937 Yearbook photos. Note Allen has same clothes as other yearbook photo.
1937-15
( comments) Probably another 1937 yearbook photo. Unknown classmate
1937-16
( comments) Allen's HS graduation photos. The rightmost photo was used in 1937 Alexian. April 1937
1937-17
( comments) Yet anotherdifferent version of Allen's HS senior photo in the Alexian so April 1937
1937-18
( comments) e Dad wrote on back of a duplicate of this "Carl Johnson April 1937" This is another pose from his Alexian senior photo.
1937-19
( comments) Len Olson graduation spring 1937
1937-20
( comments) Scanned from photo in frame. Dad wrote on back of frame "National Honor Society 1937 Al - upper right" On back of photo "Congratulations F. J. Herda" 1937
1937-21
( comments) Dad labeled "Albin Ljung" Probaby taken same time as Allen's graduation photo. So spring 1937.
1937-22
( comments) Dad labeled "High School Graduation - Spring 1937" Clearly Allen.
1937-23
( comments) Valedictorian Gladys Lindstrom and Salutatorian Allen Ljung In "100 Years at Alexandria's high school" See article in ZL99 284 June 2, 1937
1937-24
( comments) In "100 Years at Alexandria's high school" (published about 1967) June 2, 1937
1937-25
( comments) On back "7/4/1937" I think Mom put wrong date on this photo. I think it is in California about the time of ZL5 051 (June 20, 1937) From left this appears to be. Doug Watkins, Aunt Marie Watkins, and Uncle Roy Watkins (with Marie's hand on his neck). Marie is a sister (Hannah Marie Olson) of Emma Olson I don't know who the other 3 men are. Note that Doug looks very much like the son of Clara and Gust Jants (photo ZL6 005 June 1939) Perhaps not surprising as Marie and Clara are sisters.
1937-26
( comments) Mom wrote on back "6/20/37 Departing for East" Mom ? labeled "6 - 20 - 37 Doug Watkins Uncle Roy and Aunt Marie Watkins" Marie is a sister (Hannah Marie Olson) of Emma Olson. This is from Mom's first trip out to California. This photo is as she leaves by train to go East. I think she went to Chicago - see July 1937 photos with black border.
1937-27
( comments) On back someone wrote "6/37" no other info. I don't recognize anyone. They might be Aunt Clara kids? Compare with ZL6 005 from June 1939. From Irene's album.
1937-28
( comments) On back "7/4/1937" Irene, ?, Fran. Is this one of Irene's trips to Chicago?
1937-29
( comments) No info, but photo has same black border as previous two photos dated 7/4/1937. I think this is the "Heavy weight" that is also in ZL5 201. An April 1940 picture. If so, then Mom knew him for about 3 years!! Dad said he was interested in Mom.
1937-30
( comments) Mom wrote on back "Erick Ljung" Although this photo is in with 1919 photos (probably because Albin and Ida lived with Erick in 1919), I think it was later based on apparent age. Also the fact that Mom wrote on it indicates a later date. He died in 1939 at age 76. Assume this is 1937.
1937-31
( comments) Dad labeled "Cabin we stayed in on trip to Bemiji in '25 Model "T"" On the back I believe Mom wrote "Allen and Albin south of Bemidji" Clearly Albin on left and Allen to right. Guess 1937
1937-32
( comments) Dad labeled "Mom, Dad and Paul Bunyan" Clearly goes with previous photo so assume 1937
1937-33
( comments) John Martinson emailed these 5 photos that he got from Janet Dec 8, 2014. John gave it file name "1937_Mera_Edna_Myrtle" Thus Elmera Larson in 1937. Other's must be her friends.
1937-34
( comments) Dad labeled "Picnic at Spruce Center August Andersons, P.O. Johnsons and Ljungs"s I don't know who Ausgust Andersons are (not in family tree) so lots of ? in identifing persons. The rows are mixed up and so just going from left to right we have Albin Ljung, ?, Agnus Johnson, ? in back, probably Johnson girl knelling, looks like Pearl Anderson, Ida Ljung in back, Jennie Johnson, ? in back, ? in front, Johnson girl, probably August Anderson in back, ? face below August, Johnson girl knelling, Allen Ljung, Howard Hanson (sure looks like him - he is not part of these families, but might be there because of Agnes - his future wife), Johnson girl in front - probably Audrey. Assuming it is Audrey we can date this photo. She was born Sept 1932 and she looks 4 or 5, so guess 1937. Guessing at the names of the three unnamed Johnson girls. The first one might be Lorayne (or might not even be a Johnson girl). The second one could be Helen and the third knelling one could be Margaret. ZL5 097 was another copy of this photo (now deleted) No info on that photo although it was included with 1940 photos. I am sticking with my estimate of 1937.
1937-35
( comments) No info. Irene Looks like about 1937
1937-36
( comments) These 7 photos were in Irene's photo wallet that she carried for ID. I will put all in 1972 as she was using it when she had her stroke. I will also put individual photos in appropriate year. 1972 On back mom wrote "1937"
1937-37
( comments) These 6 photos are the backs of ZL99 286 - 291. I think this one says "Doug Co-Fran 1937" Could be shorthand that Mom gave Douglas a copy and a couple to Fran. 1972
1937-38
( comments) In a folder and in the border (where the stamp of a professinal photographer would go) HJWeinthaler is carefully inked in. Followed by a pencilled "1939 ?". My guess is that Herb Weinthaler took photo. However to me it looks more like 1937 photos of Mom.gg
1937-39
( comments) No info. Irene and an unknown boy. Assume 1937 by its placement in album
1937-40
( comments) No info, and I have no idea. Is this same person as ZL5 056 in 1938? Guess 1937
1937-41
( comments) No info, but in back are Harold, Howard, Vernon, in front, Fran, Irene, Alice (Doug missing) Guess 1937
1937-42
( comments) No info. However this is taken as same time as previoius photo and shows the four A.C. children from his first wife Mathilda. l to r - Fran, Harold, Vernon, Alice. Guess 1937.
1937-43
( comments) Don took photos of photos that were at 2010 Hanson Reunion. This is Irene, Alice and Fran. Looks like 1937.
1937-44
( comments) There was a copy of this photo as ZL1 026 (now deleted) That photo Allen labeled as "AC Hanson's Cadillac used as Nelson school bus" And I commented "Looks like recent photo of part of old photo. Don guesses orig photo around 1928." Clearly I guessed wrong. In this original photo one can see the license plate is 1937.
1937-45
( comments) No info. Looks like Fran with A.C.s Cadilac. See previous photo to date as 1937
1937-46
( comments) No info. Irene in AC's Cadillac Definately same time as photo of Fran and car. So 1937
1937-47
( comments) Dad found a Ford photo of his first car a 1924 Model "T" Ford Coupe Put in 1937 since that is when Dad had it.
1937-48
( comments) Dad wrote on back "John Bolin" John is father of Floyd Bolin John was born in 1877 and he looks maybe 60, so guess 1937
