Meet Jack's younger daughter, Ann...

 

It's Ann walking

Here's Ann doing her Monica Moffa imitation. (Don't ask. It's an in joke. I don't even think Ann knows it). That's dad and Mary watching approvingly.

 

Ann in the backyard

Late 1950's and Ann's walking around the backyard holding a cup of something. Maybe it's a bell held upside down?

 

Ann and television

Grandma Gordon watches our Ann get fingerprints all over the tv. Either the photographer was being creative or this was taken during an earthquake.

 

Ann and dad

What more can I say.

 

Ann and mom on swing

Looking pretty happy it's Ann and mom on a swing. (Picture was developed during the summer of 1960.)

 

Slippin' and slidin' with Ann

Maybe from the same park trip as above based on Ann wearing the sailor suit and the photo being developed during the summer of 1960. She looks pretty good after that long slide down.

 

Its a cow

It's a cow, I tell ya! My teacher told me that all cows have four stomachs
and this things got four stomachs plus it's got four legs, so its gotta be a cow!

Ann may be falling for this. John's just asking her to pull the other one...

 

Assumption School, Seattle, 1st Grade Class, 1963-64

Can you pick out Ann surrounded by the rest of her Grade 1 class at Assumption School in Seattle? This was the only year that Sister Mary Clarice, now known by a different name, spent at Assumption.

Ann and mom on the beach

Beaches. We Gordons loved beaches for the summer. Vancouver Island, Orcas Island, Washington's coast, Oregon's coast. Summers were good for the Gordon family. This is from the summer of 1962.

 

Ann and snow

No! No! What color is that snow that Ann's getting ready to nibble on?

 

Here's Ann, in a photo developed in October of 1964, proudly showing off her Camp Fire Girl Uniform. (Back then only girls were allowed in the Camp Fire Girls.)
That birch tree behind her is now (46 years later) about 100 feet tall.
(Thankfully, Ann isn't.)

 

There's been some dispute on this picture. I say that's Ann on the left of the second row . Others say it's not. Send your complaints to whoever took it.

Assumption School, Seattle, 4th Grade Class, 1966-67

Three years later and Ann's moved to the top of her class. Pictorially anyway. Online references to "Mrs Lowman" at Assumption all point to the 1930's, so probably not this teacher.

 

Ann and dad

Well, we missed a couple of years, but here's a couple of happy people.... Ann and her dad. Ann can probably date it. Others might as well by whose picture is in which position behind them.

 

Ann,Dad,and John in front
