Shared Photo: 1920s Schoolgirls in Moline, Illinois

This photo was taken at Seven Oaks Lake in about 1921. It includes my grandmother in the middle, and her sister on the right. They grew up in Moline, Rock Island County, Illinois. Based on another photo that was labeled, I believe that Ruth Corbin (also from Moline) is on the left. The others appear in multiple photos in the collection.

I have uploaded a number of other photos of my grandmother, her sister and their friends on a Freespace page. I have a few more that I will be adding. If you know the names of any of the people, please comment! Moline Friends and Neighbors
