1940s? Left is my Mother's first cousin, Bascomb K. Osborne and on far right is his father, my Great Uncle Bascomb Osborne. Bascomb'ssecond wife, Ada stands behind Bascomb K's daugher, Virginia (Ginnie). The photo was probably taken in the late 1940s or early 1950s at the Osborne home in Owenboro, Kentucky. Bascomb was a Ford manager. The younger Bascomb, Uncle Bab as he was known to his nieces and nephews, had an outstanding career in the U.S. Navy. All in this photo are now deceased.
1930s Below is another photo of Frances Wilson Osborne, my generation's Great Grandmother. As usual she is dressed in black. Whose front porch is this? I assume this was made in either Damascus, Virginia or Bristol, Tennessee. She often wears a wide black ribbon around her waist in photographs.
