Rourke/Lettie Carter House

Here are some wonderful images of island kids, with the beautiful Rourke/Lettie Carter house, on Argyle Avenue, in the background. The pictures are undated, but the house was built in 1912, and my grandma was born in 1919. She's just a young girl, so we can estimate it as being the early 1920s. I love the expressions on their faces!

My grandma is the girl in the bottom row, middle, reaching her hand in the other girl's pocket!

My grandma is holding the racket.  The kids were often riding this pony...

Notice the sidewalks!
