Glenn Murray Smith - Childhood Photos

My maternal great-grandparents, Glenn Alvin Smith and Genevieve Murray Smith, took many photos of their seven children. I am lucky to have inherited a treasure trove of photos of my grandfather, Glenn Murray Smith, and his siblings. I shared several of them in my last post about Glenn, but there are so many more wonderful images tucked away in archival sleeves in my filing cabinet. Here's a photo post to show them off, with more to come in the future.

I think Glenn is about age two in these photos. At right, he plays with his elder sister, Virginia Kathryn Smith, who was about a year and a half older than him.

At left, Glenn (center) enjoys a snack with his sisters, Virginia (left) and Barbara (right). Barbara was about a year and a half younger than Glenn. At right, Glenn sits on the lap of his paternal grandfather, Walter Samuel Smith. His sisters Virginia and Barbara are also in the photo.

A slightly older Glenn shows off his Cub Scout salute in the photo at left.

Glenn and one of his sisters in toy cars. I can't tell if this is Virginia or Barbara.
