Photo 1950 - Johnny and Larry in Hancock

This photo was taken some time around 1950, at the Dutcher farm in Hancock, NY. Shown are Larry (the younger) and Johnny (the elder). They were taken in as foster children from the state of New York, and were raised by my grandmother, Bessie Dutcher Sherman, in exchange for payment from the state. They are mentioned in paragraph 18 of Bessie's autobiography. It is not known if they were brothers; no mention is made of this if they are (or were). I have no other information about them at this time. ..James Alan Sherman Genealogy HOME Search Tool
