At our house on Beacon Street in Kalamazoo--you can tell by the plywood walls. This was one of the set taken shortly after Richard was born.
My great grandfather (Dad's mom's father) was born around 1870, evidently in Marcellus; he passed away in August of 1957.

==========
Most of my father's slides are familiar, but I remember them as being organized primarily by date taken. The scanning project's made it clear that late in his life Dad rearranged them. At least four carousels have been reworked, which he labeled RPD #1 through RPD #4.
(For Roger Paul Dinda.)
Slide Carousel RPD #1 is sort of a family album, with pictures taken prior to 1965 or so. The first 40 slides are of our immediate family--the pics of
Mom and
Dad I posted a few days ago, then groups portraying me, my sister Debbie, and my brother Dick. The next 20 slides are of the Kalamazoo area Dindas, and were taken mostly at family gatherings. The last 20 are pix of the Kroeger clan (Mom's family), which were taken family by family where they lived around 1960 (mostly in Iowa).
There are gaps--we didn't see the California Kroegers very often, for instance, so they're mostly not represented. But all in all it's a good effort. And interesting to explore.
I'm looking forward to scanning RPD #2 in a few days, and finding what's there.
