Petty Kids, Gillette, Wyoming, 1918

 1918, Gillette, Wyoming, Petty Kids : These kids are my mother and her siblings in 1918. First on the left is Opal sitting on the ground with her baby sister Ethel America Petty (my mother). The two boys holding the prairie chicken are Tom (with hat) and Wallace. The next boy with a hat is Osmo and the girl is Georgia. Interesting both boys wearing hats at such a young age would be photographed throughout their lives with hats on.
