This is the family of Albert Newton Babb and Mary Penelope Catharine “Katie”
Adams, great grandparents of Patty Higgs Mann. This picture was made 1917/18 (based on appeared age of my father and the fact that Katie died in 1918), probably in the Ralston Community. Lula & Beaulah were twins. Another set of twins was born to this family but died in infancy. Charlie Babb fathered two sets of twins.
