Drab Family Portrait c.1924 - Family of Frank & Aloysia

A DRAB family portrait circa 1924 probably taken on Long Island, NY where they lived.

Frank and Aloysia Drab with four of their six children (the youngest two, Bill & Mary, not yet born)

Children from left to right:
Frank at about 8 or 9
Louise at about 6 or 7 (my grandmother)
Joe the baby at about 1 or 2
John at about 2 or 3

father Frank would've been about 33-34
mother Aloysia would've been 34-35
(also shared on Facebook)

Within our direct lineage, these children were the first generation of children that were all born here in the USA.   Both parents were born in Bohemia.  Frank's first cousins (children of his Uncle Jan & Barbara Drab) were technically the first generation of our Drab family born in the US.
