Three Boys

I'm not sure who these three are. I doubt if they are my uncles Harold, Eugene, and Vernie (my father's three older brothers). From all appearances the plates here were all taken around the same time: before 1920, or not too much later. Harold would have been six in 1920, Vernie was not born until 1921. Also, this is obviously a copy of an earlier photograph taken in a professional photographer's studio. I think this is probably a picture of my grandfather, his older brother Paul, and his younger brother Ernest. That would put the time of the original photo around 1895 which, by the clothes the three are wearing, seems to be about right.
