Carnival of Genealogy Swimsuit Issue


This picture is my sister Jacque and me in a small pond at my grandparents house. I hope I was wearing a swimsuit here, but it does not show in the picture.
I was really surprised I could not find another picture of me in a swimsuit. I know there is one here somewhere that has me and about 7 or 8 other children at the lake home of a friend, but I have not found it yet. My parents bought a lake lot when I was about 6 years old and we built a cabin there and I have went swimming each summer since then. Problem is I am light skinned and sun burn easily, so I nearly always wore a t-shirt when I was swimming. I found a few pictures with me in a t-shirt but the t-shirt covered up my swim suit. Glad we have sun screen today.

These next two pictures are of my great aunt Latisha, Vanderpool (Tish in the pictures).

I don't know who Mrs. May is. This one says after our Finn Bath
They were taken at Lake George, Minnesota in August 1942.

  2. That pond must have had a fountain. Your comments are funny. Great summer time swimsuit photos.

  3. It was like a fountain, but had a sprinkler in the middle of the top. The top was a bird bath. I don't remember the pond at the bottom but do remember the bird bath and the sprinkler in the middle of it.
