On the back, " this picture evidently was taken at 414 Park St. Residence, our home in Atchison about 1940-45. Soon after Raymond and Alice Schaffer were married June 23, 1946 and moved into their house at 405 _____ (south fifth? st) at that time, already 24 years ago; now with your family, we love going to Atchison's Jackson Park for a picnic supper if I remember correctly. Do you? - B"
Is that a note written by Bruce Sr.?

Yes, NKMG graduated from Monmouth HS in 1914, went for a year to MC, then taught at Cedar Creek for a year before returning to MC. Is that she on the right rear of the photo?

Cook Book

Aunties Fran (Gillis) Clark and Jan (Gillis) Hansen where in Denver for a visit. It was fast and furious, they agreed the cook book was a great idea, and we went through my Grand mothers Nellie Katheryn McCrery Gillis's highschool, college, engagement scrapbook. NKMG was ahead of her time in the scrapbooking arena!
