By now you have probably gotten the idea that when mom put this photo album together there was no rhyme or reason to how she did it. The other notable observation is that she made no more entries as captions. So from here on out it is what we know and what we conjecture.
This is Mildred as a little girl. Her parents were Etta (Paden) and David Coppus.
She was born 21 Oct 1915in Bascom - Seneca County, Ohio.
This is Etta Coppus who at this point had divorced Dave Coppus and trained to be a nurse.
She is holding Jerry I believe. About 1938.
As it appears this must have been some type of family gathering, but as for most parents their children are the favorite subjects for photos – Jim and Jerry Tripp.
This is Bill Coppus, Mildred’s brother.
This is Elsie on left and Mildred Coppus with their Grandpa Paden. Jacob B. (Franklin ) Paden was born in Ohio around 1853. He and his wife Mary Jane (Elizabeth) FLAUGHER mainly lived in Tiffin. My mother and her siblings often went to stay with their grandparents when their parent had marital problems.
