Marcella Nettie Korchinski nee Ron (1935 - 2009)

Even though Marcy didn't really have an attic, the posthumous discovery of numerous boxes containing uncatalogued photographs (many of them hidden under beds) suggest that she might have stored these archival treasures in a dusty attic for sorting out "one day." That day has arrived!

Much of the material is mysterious to me, and all of it needs to be organized. Family comments are not only welcome, they are vital to this project. I thank you for your input in advance!

To assist you (and me), I have also started a family tree. It is far from complete, but this link will take you to my page at Family Echo: FAMILY TREE (Just email me if you need the password, I didn't want to publish it here.)

Due to the nature of blogging (and sorting through archives), there is no apparent order to these entries. If you prefer to search through the photos and documents in a logical way, please refer to the search options on the right.


1940s - Ron Family Groupings

Two sweet family groups that seem to have posed in the same place on the same day. Too bad I have no idea who these are or when and where it was taken. Any ideas?

Auntie Di said these would have been taken in the 1940s. For the first one, she said, "Walter, Dad Ron's brother (cannot remember his name), holding Alice (I remember her as she was near my age)." The little boy on the right is named Ted.

For the second one, Auntie Di said, "This is Dad (Harry) Ron's brother and family. The younger ones are Ted, Walter, and Alice." The two older girls she did not know. Can anyone tell me which Ron brother this would be?

Doug thought that might be Giga Sliwa, but that was just a guess (and, I am guessing, incorrect?).
