Jesse HOOKINS (Tree A)

I have provided photographs of Jesse before but this is a lovely picture of the whole family possibly taken in the grounds of the house where Jesse was employed probably in the early 1920s. Jesse's wife Alice had died in 1915 at which stage Jesse was left with these 7 children aged then between 2 and 14 years. He seems to have done a good job in caring for them and bringing them up alone as well as fulfilling his duties to his employers.
