    Don't you just love the names.....
    Myrtle
    Blanche
    Rosa
    Alice
    Patty
    Winifred
    Grace
    Lillie

    So contemporary to their time. Then the initial names....boys/males perhaps??
    There were 3 "Mrs." there, too. Makes one wonder if this might have been from a class or preschool of some sort.
