I have a picture that belonged to my grandmother, Ruth Margaret (SMITH) ANDREWS. On the back it says, "Grand Rapids Mich in front of ? Jim and Mauds house, Laura (far left), Maud BOWEN, Sylvia WINKS."

I don't know how these three ladies fit into my family history. Here are some surnames that might be connected: ANDREWS, PHELPS, MAHAN, McINTOSH, WELCH, McMURRY, SMITH, ARMENTROUT, BARR, MURTEN, BENNETT, AUSTIN, TODD, NAUSLER, HARPER, KIDD, ENGLAND, VANMEER
I'm taking a wild guess that the Laura in the picture with Maud BOWEN and Sylvia WINKS, could possibly be Laura PHELPS, daughter of Alice C. ANDREWS (1863-1950) and Francis M. PHELPS (1853-1926). This Laura married Roy MAHAN before 1953. They had a son, Richard, born about 1924.
I have lots more information on the lineage for Alice C. ANDREWS if interested.
Thanks!
