Historical Huntingtonia

Since Jane died last week the Weiners, Huntingtons and I have been unearthing some seriously old stuff. I am replacing my useless scanner soon so take this as a preview; the pic of the family Huntington in China in the thirties is really of decent quality, for instance.

Below: Virginia Haist Huntington at high school graduation, 1907, and with her kids about 1977. (The old one courtesy of David Weiner). Then Bishop D T Huntington in his Episcopal robes in China, and with the whole family.

You think Virginia was old? She married an older guy. "Trum" died almost exactly when I was born, and was born in 1865. He was in then- Peking for the Boxer Rebellion.
