1956 Catherine on first day of 2nd Grade -Sept.

This picture was taken by Mrs. Pierce, a neighbor in the apartment house where we lived in the 1950s, taken in the yard that was east of the house and would now be inside the Dollar Store on the corner of Routes 28 & 73 in New Vienna.  Mrs. Pierce sometimes babysat for Roberta and me.  Roberta especially loved her button collection.  I can still see Roberta sitting quietly (!) at Mrs. Pierce's table going through the large tin container of buttons.
