United States Family First Communion Pair (1923)

First Communioin
Figure 1.--Here we have a pair apparentky doing their First Communion together. They look to be about 6-9 years old. We assume they must be briother abnd sister, he most likely grouping of tw0 children doing First Communion together. Perhaps they are just photogrphed together and not doing First Communion together. Or perhaps the First Communion was delayed so they could go through the ceremony together. We are not surec which was at play. .

Here we have a pair apparentky doing their First Communion together. They look to be about 6-9 years old. We assume they must be briother abnd sister, he most likely grouping of two children doing First Communion together. Perhaps they are just photogrphed together and not doing First Communion together. Or perhaps the First Communion was delayed so they could go through the ceremony together. We are not surec which was a vplay. It was a studio portrait with a white border. All we know for sure is that the portrit was taken un 1923. We can make out Syx Studio. but we can not make out the location. The boys wears the standard dark knicker suit and matching long stockings. The girl wears the stabdad white junior wrdding dress with an unusual head affair. As both have candles, rossary beeds, and cards, it seems that gthey asre both doing thrir First Comnunion.
