David John Latta

at his grandparents' house on Broad Avenue, Canton, Ohio

1950s ?

This photo is from the collection of my aunt, Janedith Ellen Latta, my loving Aunt Jan, Aunt Janie. It was in a box of about a hundred slides taken in the 1930s, 1940s, and a couple from 1952. I had them converted to a CD and to paper prints a couple years before she passed in 2006. She did the identifications on all the pictures. I think Aunt Jan took most of them. Some were probably taken by her father David Wilson Latta. When he was a young teenager, he had a blackroom there at home in Monroe County, Ohio, and developed his own photos. He even thought he might like to be a professional photographer when he grew up, until a cousin said, "Give me a nickel's worth, Dave." He became a mechanical engineer instead.
