    <content type="html">From Aunt Ruth's scrapbook...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ruth and her family took a trip to Oakland, CA in 1926.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know if they knew Virginia Bliss or not, but Ruth snapped a photo of Virginia and her baby anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://s3.photobucket.com/albums/y69/sharpchick/Family%20photos/?action=view&amp;amp;current=VirgieBlissandbabyOaklandCA1926.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y69/sharpchick/Family%20photos/VirgieBlissandbabyOaklandCA1926.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;Caption reads, "Virgie Bliss and baby."&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;hr /&gt;From a quick check of the 1930 census, I found Virginia Bliss (born about 1903), wife of James Bliss, living with her husband, 3 1/2 year old daughter, Frances E., and 24 year old brother-in-law, Adam, in Oakland, Alameda Co., CA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll haunt the Ancestry trees to see if I can find descendants to offer them a scan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably will upload to Dead Fred if I can determine if no one in the photo is still living.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are related, just right click and save...&lt;hr /&gt;&lt;small&gt;This is a &lt;a href="http://sepiasaturday.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sepia Saturday&lt;/a&gt; post.  Head over there to see other cool photos.&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=dee_burris&amp;ditemid=119173" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
