A Moment in Time: Old Photos Invited from Our Readers

Photo provided by Robert Milner

Posing in about 1926 for the traditional spring portrait are the student body and their teacher at the “First Northwest” District schoolhouse on Hill Street next to the First Baptist Church. The building is a comfortable small home now. Teacher Alice Beers (if this was 1926) managed students ranging from grade 1 to grade 4. The native Suffieldian who sent in this picture is ninety percent sure the scene includes four Wilson kids, three Majewski kids, three Duni kids and two Zera kids. He identified his mother, Stacia Koc, as seated second from the left. Standing second from the right is his uncle Charles Koc, and seated second from the right is Gert Wilson. Can our readers provide more identifications?
