           1936 Larkins Family Reunion Photo
                                        Findlay, Ohio

James Washington Larkins from Findlay, Ohio was born 1824 married Catherine Robinalt and moved to Brady Township, Saginaw County, Michigan where they had a large family.  Some of the above people were from Michigan.  I can only identify one person, Majel Larkins grandaughter of James W. and Catherine Larkins. She is the 2nd lady 2nd row on (your) left. If anyone can identify any others I would be grateful.  Some of the younger folks in the photo should still be alive.

   From a letter from James Edward Larkins, 638 Balboa Drive, Universal City, Texas, 28 December, 1989.
   Latest address for James E. Larkins, PO Box 1207, Port Aransas, Texas 78373.

Dear Richard,

Your request for information on Larkins from Findlay, Ohio came via a circuitous route.  My neighbor, Roger Dubbs,
formerly of Wood County, (saw your query in a genealogical newsletter) and asked me if I would like to comment on it.

This (enclosed) is information I put together after my father died in 1967, strickly for my two daughters.  You can guess
that it was a somewhat frustrating job--names, pictures, dates not "jiving" e.g.--so any errors are my own.  But the following schematic is the best I could do with limited funds, patience, and time.  I hope it is of some help to you.

The name James Washington Larkins never came up, but I do have the 1936 reunion photo.  You will find me and my mother
(at the extreme left) in the first row seated, and my father in the last row, third from the right--tie, no coat, pencil in pocket.

If you want to visit Jack (Larkins) in Findlay, take the route 224, Trenton Avenue exit, proceed east to N. Main Street. To
visit Maple Grove Cemetery, take the next exit south, W. Main Cross St.  The cemetery is at that intersection.

Sincerely
(signed)  Jim
James E. Larkins
