My maternal Grandmother Azile Juanita Daughrity Roberts Sullivan (1921-2009) owned a beautiful heart shaped locket.
On the back are her initials, AD.

Grandmom is wearing the locket in her 1939 Graduation photo from Sumter High School, in Sumter, South Carolina. There is nothing in it now, but I wonder, did it ever hold a picture of someone she loved? Who would it have been?
Was it a graduation gift? Possibly.

That is a beautiful locket. It is wonderful you have a picture of your grandmom wearing it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kathy. I love that I have the picture of her wearing it. Makes it mean so much more. I appreciate your comment!
DeleteWoW Cheryl I want to know! I have a few pieces. You all are making me realize all the little treasures I'm so glad I saved. My Grandmothers watch from the 40's. She's in pictures with it for other decades.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to have it and other items from my ancestors. It's touching to be able to hold things that they once held. Thanks, True!

DeleteCheri, was there anything inside the locket? It is truly a family treasure, especially with the photo. I have several pieces of family jewelry that are my treasures.
ReplyDeleteIt is empty, unfortunately. Sure wish I knew if she ever had a picture in it and of who! Thanks, Colleen!
DeleteI love seeing an heirloom in use in a picture. I have a photo of my grandaunt's wedding gifts, many of which I inherited.
ReplyDeleteIt really brings them to life, doesn't it? Thanks so much, Wendy!
