Posted by Scanned from Mom’s family photo album. She sat with me and together we came up with the captions. Some of the photos she wants to do more research with her cousins to identify more of the people. Mom’s maternal grandmother and grandfather, Hilda and ?? Huott, were of Swedish origin and appear in many of these as Momo and Mofa. Her parents are Dorothy and Harold Fisher and her siblings are Jack and Bobby (John and Barbara). Many photos show her with lots of cousins, they had a big close-knit family growing up in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York.
