I have two original photographs of “Gladys Irene Higgins”, which I’d like to get back to descendants or family members. One is a postcard photo, dated 1914, and the other is a 2x3” snapshot, stating her age as 12 and “born 6/29/04”.
I found the family of Gladys in the 1910 & 1920 censuses of Denver, showing her age 4 in 1910 and 15 in 1920. She was daughter of Ralph R. Higgins and Mary Blanche (Buckingham) Higgins. Obituaries in the Billings Gazette for her parents showed her as survivor, Gladys (H. for Higgins) Pasco of Billings – whose daughters were Barbara Joanne Higgins and Margaret Ann Higgins of Portland, and Ruth Mary Pasco of Billings.
In 1930, Gladys lived in Casper (Natrona Co.) WY with husband William D. Pasco (married in Sep 1923), and she was Gladys Pasco, age 25. Billings paper showed that Mr./Mrs. Wm. D. Pasco of Casper “had a baby girl born 28 Feb 1932”: Ruth Mary Pasco. Mr. Pasco died in Billings in Nov 1948. I found evidence that Ruth Mary Pasco married James L. Spiker Jul 1954 and lived near Chicago – and that at that time Ruth Mary was “daughter of Mr./Mrs. H. Darrell Ramsey”.
