Description
The main picture is of baby Lois with her mother, Ethel Biggar, likely on the day of her christening. Ethel and husband, Wilbert Biggar, had a two year old son, Harold, at this time. They lived near Munn's Corners, and the christening was likely at Munn's Methodist Church.

The second photograph is labelled in the family album, "Lois was always a flower girl". Here she is feeding the hens at Glenclare Farm at about age 2, perhaps 3 so about 1921.
