Visiting St. Louis in the 70's

 I think this is Grant's Farm.

Norwegian Side of the Family

Andrew Sannes with Grandpa Singer. Andrew is grandma's cousin on her dad's side.

Alvis Amble and Ernest Sannes. Grandma's 2 or 3rd cousins  I think(circa 1983)

Tom and Aunt Rose. Grandma's sister and her son I believe.

I don't remember meeting any of Grandma's Sannes relatives so I thought I would post a few photos I found. It's nice to put faces to names in the Family Tree I have been building all these years.

Uncle Eddie

My grandmother was very fond of her brother Adelino Fernandez. Uncle "Eddie" lived in Phoenix most of his life teaching flamenco and working as a short order cook at the VA hospital.  I finally got the courage to take apart his brittle old scrapbook so I could scan some of his headshots. Here is a nice article from a Phoenix newspaper later in his life and the photographs. The scrapbook has a beautiful wooden cover made by some students who could not afford to pay him.  It is mentioned in this article.
