Jack Whitaker

Someone else contributed this picture of the Orson Adelbert Whitaker family, taken around 1935, to FamilySearch, but I wanted to be able to find it again, and to remember who is who, so I'm posting it here as well.
from left to right: Berlin, Jessie, Judge, Orson (sitting), Don, Ferrin, Scott, Clara (sitting), Jack (sitting), Russel

I found it while doing a quick search on Uncle Jack, so thought I'd add a couple pictures of him as well, along with the link to his obituary.

And here's another one of the family, taken in about 1944:

  1. How wonderful to find these beloved faces here. As the eldest of Orson and Clara's grandchildren I have many childhood memories of family gatherings with gossip and laughter and -- always music!
