Gilbert Family Reunion


On July 15, 1864 Mary Jane Anderson was born in Brown County Kansas the daughter of Ole Anderson and his wife Kjersti (Bronson) Anderson.  I had originally thought these two photos were from the gathering of her family to celebrate her birthday in 1940, but in looking at other photos taken in 1940 the women were all wearing different clothes, so this is another birthday in another year.  The family celebrated her birthday together for the first time in 1940 and have been doing so every year since then.  Mary died Feb 17, 1948.
