Front porch of our Winspear Avenue house in Buffalo

When Bill was born we lived in an upstairs apartment near the Buffalo Zoo.  I don't have any pictures of that place; we weren't there long…but we finally moved into faculty housing on the edge of the campus of the University of Buffalo.  




Our address was 208 Winspear Avenue.  We enjoyed that house a lot. It had a great sun porch and a fireplace in the living room.

The lady on the left in these pictures was Bill's godmother.  Her name was Charlotte Claflin.  I met her through la Leche League.

As you can see by this time I was in maternity clothes again; Margaret Ellen was on the way.  She was born January 30, 1962.

The front porch at 208 Winspear, fall 1961


We were sitting on the front porch of our house in Winspear, on the Buffalo University campus.  The lady on the left is Charlotte, Claflin.  She was a friend of ours and Bill's godmother when he was christened.  In the first picture you see Hayne with Bill next to him and Anne next to Miss Claflin.  

Hayne took the second picture so I am in it.  I was obviously pregnant with Margaret Ellen Reese who was born January 30, 1962.
