My great uncle Amos and my two older brothers. Thanksgiving weekend 1963. My grandmother had died a couple months prior and president Kennedy had died a few days before. You can see the sadness etched on Amos's face. The phone was bought in 1940 when the house was new. I don't remember it. This is also in the living room where I'm now sitting.

Amos used to play accordion and fiddle at dances in the area. 1920s-1940s. #genealogy #history
