Can you identify the people in these photos from the August 23, 1933 hurricane? I think they are from Poquoson.

Frank,
The first picture is my grandparents, John Riley and Maggie Lena Garrett Firth with some of their 11 children. I would love to have this picture (a copy? please) and I will get the names of the children as I am not sure which they are!

That does look like my Great Grandma Lena! I am her son (Edward's) grandaughter...I am sure my mother and family would love a copy of this, where did you get it from?
