“Today is the 13th and MOM was 13 on this PHOTO”

1913 Marie Brady age 13!

Marie Brady on the right – standing.MOM 13 001Irene Brady,   Mae Lauth,  and  Marie Brady are standing and sitting on left  is Jimmie Brady (adopted) and  the  little  boy is not known to me. 

 The eldest brother, James D. Brady and his wife adopted little “Jimmie” as a baby,   and  while they are visiting FAMILY in Missouri, have a real good  “baby-sitter, Marie.” 

In the above PHOTO – the ladies all have some fancy caps on their heads – so a wild guess – they were all working in the kitchen – making some kind of a good meal – for all of the FAMILY to enjoy. That is what I remember my MOM telling me – that when all the FAMILY would gather – they had a feast – so many and they all enjoyed eating the best  of foods!

In so many of  the pictures  that I have, there  are a good many of  “little Jimmie”   as they  did  live in Missouri  with a place to stay – as they did believe in traveling  as family from here would go to their place in El Paso, Texas.   Always   work and family  invitations requiring many trips  to come up from Texas for “FAMILY” get-to-gathers – and  vise versa.

Long before they moved to Texas,   James  D. Brady, the eldest in the “BRADY FAMILY”  had an important position with the  “Swift Packing Company,”  which required that  Jim  and  his family would  move to  that big STATE of   Texas.
