It’s that time again for this month’s column from the Historical Museum…

Clothing styles change but buddy pictures are always popular with boys. In these two photos from the collection of the San Juan Historical Museum, taken about 50 years apart, all six of the boys have been identified. But their life stories can always be collected as part of our island’s narrative.

Left photo undated, left to right: Walter Scribner (born 1902 in the Scribner Cabin now on the grounds of the Historical Museum), John Nash (born 1901), and Henry Lightheart (born 1902).

Right photo taken in 1969, left to right: Mitchell Chevalier (related to John Nash), Jeff Beeston, and Paul Miner.
What tales do you have about these boys? Please do share.
