Description

Black and white matte re-print photograph of the Kerrigan children taken on a hot summer day in 1943 probably at the home of Mr. McMasters on Highview Terrace. The six children were born to Anne and Francis Kerrigan who then lived at 334 Granby Road in Lake Forest. Top row left to right: Mary Jo (twin) age 10, Phyllis age 7, Katy Lu (Kay- twin to Mary Joe) age 10. Bottom row: Don age 12, baby brother Jack age 4 and Regina age 11. Kay explains, "We were not happy about having our picture taken on such a hot day. Poor mom, even curled all of our hair. You can see how we were sweating. Little did I know that years later, I would be living with Rob and our family on the same street, near South Park."
