<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 142240, member: 33"]It's good to have the comparison photo from 1910, Susan. I think the original post might be a class of just a few years earlier, maybe 1905-ish? The reason I say that is the top parts of the dresses are a little "blousier" and looser than the 1910 one that you posted.</p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with others that 8th grade graduation from a parochial school is a possibility. Confirmation might also be possible, but I think that confirmation ceremonies are more often done with children just a little younger... maybe 4th or 5th grade? But that may vary, depending on where one lives.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
