This is Part 4 of Retro Photos of My In-Laws!
This picture is my husband’s paternal grandfather’s paternal grandparents. (There HAS to be another word for that!) Don’t they look like they’ve had such a hard life? It’s sad. But also inspiring.
I asked my husband’s grandfather about this picture and about his grandparents. The only thing he really said was that his grandfather had his eye poked out. (POKED OUT?!) But this picture was before that happened. Oh my. How scary is that?! Maybe he was more of an OUT-law!

I love seeing these old photos. So much history, so many hidden stories.

I inherited a ton of old photos. I don’t know who a lot of the people are, but I tell ya, it doesn’t look like *anyone* was having a good time back then!

I LOVE old photos. I have some of my great grandparents that homesteaded where we live now, framed and on the wall.

Eye poked out?! Yikes! That sounds like quite a story!
Great picture – a little scary, though! We love m&ms too.
