Family treasures!!!

I was asked to find a picture of my father in his uniform. That would be from World War II - he was in the Navy. I didn't post that picture here but I found these other treasures! Above is my mother, Lorna Carolyn Somes, on her wedding day. The June one.

This picture above is my fathers mother, Helen G Maurer. This is the grandmother I never knew. I love the dress.
Now this picture above is my Dad. The boy on the right. Next to him in the middle is his sister Bernice and then sister Lorraine. I only met Lorraine. Now the older woman in the back is labeled Grandma Mauer. I believe the spelling should be Maurer. I really think this is special because here I have a picture of her but no information. I looked on what genealogy I have and I don't have any information on her. Guess I have some work to do.

This is just a taste - more to come later. :)
