I love that you included pictures of them from different times and that you included all of their children. I see that Laura lost what were probably premature twins and another one of her children died as a baby. She then went on to raise 8 children. She must have been a very strong woman. I love that you are preserving your heritage.
nice punch work Justie. That is so great that you journaled their children and the time period of their births & deaths. Nice work. It looks like #3 & #4 by their names were twins that didn't survive, and #5 passed young. Times were so much harder back then, but it's great you're preserving their legacy!
I love the punched border Justie. The paper is gorgeous. I like the way you wrote the children on the lined paper that looked old. What a great story. It is funny to think of Michigan as wilderness. lol
Loved reading your story about them, those are wonderful photos, and I like the way you have used the two pictures from different stages in their life! You can really see that they are the same couple, even after many years! A wonderful page!
This layout is of my paternal great-grandfather older brother and sister in law. The picture are copies. The one in top corner is their wedding photo. The second one bottom right corner is in their later years. They lived in Ft. Wayne, Indiana until their death. Isaac went to help his parents settle in the Mackinaw City area in Michigan. It was said he wanted to move his young family up to the same area as his parents and soon in couple of years my great-grandfather and great- grandmother who both also live in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. Decided to move to the Mackinaw City area. Laura didn't want to move to Mackinaw City area. Which in the early 1900s was still as she called it "wilderness" plus she didn't want to be near the Native Americans or away from her family. I'll be adding a story of this to my heritage album about this couple soon.
