William Joseph (Willie) Landon
We have only a few photos of Willie in our collection and
together they pose a puzzle.
We know that he married and had a son named Hugh. But what was his wife's
name?
Was it "Annie"? This photo has Willie and Annie
Landon written on the back.
Probably, Yacolt, WA circa 1920
Or was it "Edith"? A group of McCutchen neighbors
posing on a buckrake. The back
of the photo tells us that the man to the far right is Willie Landon and the
lady on the right
is Edith Landon. In this photo, Willie looks too young here to have a married
son, so is
Edith, not Annie, his wife's name? Or are Annie and Edith the same woman?
Or was he
married twice?
Hugh Landon was Willie's son. He lived in Yacolt and his
children, shown
here, played with the George McCutchen children in the 1920's.
