Elsie, Irwin and Grace Adams
Another of the photos I bought in a junk shop in Manhattan in the early 1990s. This was one of the few actually labelled. I was able to find them on a genealogy site.
Elsie (Elsey), Irwin (Erwin) and Grace never appear to have married and they lived with their parents, George H. Adams and Kate H. Risley in Pleasantville, NJ at least until the 1930s. Elsie became a librarian, Irwin was an automobile mechanic, and Grace was a bookkeeper at a laundry. View full size.
The other photos can be seen here.
Grace Adams
Here is a another photo of Grace Adams, taken a few years later. It was found in the same box.
