"Roots. That's a good word for it. Everybody's got a family tree and just to know how the roots grew, well that gives you a sense of who you are." spoken by Martha Corinne Walton, The Waltons, Episode 10, 1976

Wordless Wednesday - Chester Wilson Marling
Photograph of my maternal great uncle, Chester Wilson Marling (1896-1972).
Uncle Chet was born in Columbus, Ohio, but spent most of his life in Mishawaka and Elkhart, Indiana.
What a darling little boy!
ReplyDeleteYes I agree with Dorene! His name should read Chester Wislon "Darling"! How precious is this?? Thanks so much for sharing!

Too too cute. I LOVE the little coat and hat. The buttons are almost as big as little Chester. Thanks for sharing this delightful heritage photo.
ReplyDeleteLove it - that's what we call a "big britches" photo - a little guy in a "grown-up" outfit!
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome little fellow.
