Hi! I bought a picture at an antique store here in Georgia yesterday of a woman in graduation cap. The outside of the card folder the picture is in says that it is from Apeda Studio, N.Y. Someone had written on the folder "High School Graduation". Surprisingly I found, tucked behind the photo, a certificate of merit from Abraham Lincoln Junior High School, signed to Gloria Allen in June of 1941. I'm suuposing that the picture in the card folder is of Gloria Allen. If the certificate was at the end of her junior high career, then she would have been born about 1928 or so. So the high school graduation picture would be about 1945 or so. Are there any relatives out there? Thanks! Stephanie
