Caplan & Tam Family Gallery


Here are some pictures of the family as a whole

Lassor and Fanny Agoos. They were Tory and her sibs great-great grandparents (Rhoda's maternal grandparents). This picture was copied from the website of The Fanny and Lassor Agoos Library Please visit that site to learn more about the Lassor and Fanny Agoos Charitable Fund. I blew the picture  up a little, so it's not as clear as one could wish.

 
 

Here is the The Hatch Family, 1870–71  by Eastman Johnson. You can now see it hanging at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Denny's (Pat's husband) maternal grandfather, Horace Hatch,  is the baby boy in the plaid skirt in the lower right hand of the picture. Family legend has it that he was going to be the baby in the lap in the center, but that his younger sister was born and so he was moved. Legend further has it that Denny's great-great grandfather had to pay an extra US$ 1,000 for the baby, because they were paying the artist by the head.

 

Here is Mom (now known as Pat Andrews) and grandmother (Virginia Schaefer, aka Jean, nee Winter) in (I guess) 1942. I am guessing based on the fact that mom was born in November 1941 and she looks over 2 months, but under one year. If you're using Netscape you can choose "View Image" to see it at full size.
