Papa Barry married Annie Barry in 1891.  He looked very different in later years.  First picture above shows Donald my grandfather holding Clare Jean, Ruth Barry Ricketts, my grandmother, Papa Barry with Anna Louise (my mother) standing at left front with Elna, her sister, next to her.

607 Broadway in Clarksville


Clockwise from top left: Elna Ricketts, Grandpa John Barry, Anna Louise (my mother) and Clare Jean Ricketts in front of the family home at 607 Broadway in Clarksville. 




In  1990: Me, my granddaughter Margaret, and Mother (Anna Louise Ricketts) sitting on the steps of the house at 607 Broadway.  This house burned to the ground about 3 years after this photo was made.

Donald and Ruth about 1954

 Ruth and Donald had three daughters:  Anna Louise, the eldest who was my mother,  Elna, and then Clare Jean.  In this picture Donald have two of their grandchildren between them.  They are both children of Clare Jean.  The taller girl is Ruth Ann ("Cookie") and the little girl is Patty.  
I think this picture was probably made in the 1950's.
