Donald George Latta

with his son

Donald George Latta, Jr.

1944

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.
