I'm not sure who these girls are, although the man looks like Leon Miles. It is written on the back of watermelon picture, "Fore part of July 1947". Spelled exactly that way.
Gloria sent me this info: The top photo is a picture of Carroll Miles with Gloria Miles McAdams in his lap, and his two daughters by his second wife Rosella on either side. Picture was take in 1947-78 in front of the home of Leon Miles on Cemetery Road, in Berrien Springs, MI. Leon (Dad) lived there with his wife Eldora and daughter Gloria for four years while attending Emmanuel Missionary College (now Andrews University) from 1946-50. Gary was born while we lived in this house Nov 14, 1949. Leon remained at EMC for another year but we moved to a house closer to the university during the last year. Bob was born April 22, 1951. Carroll and his family came from Vermont to visit us 1948-49. I've never seen the other two photos before, but they look like they were taken on another occasion as the girls (probably the same two daughters as in the top picture) look younger. Info supplied by Gloria McAdams
