Comments: Merrill Gogan (Nee: ) | Portland ME United States | 1921-1940 | Comments: This photo is from the Ethel Wight Studio, Portland, Maine.
The envelope this negative was in says, “Mrs. Geo Gogan, 457 Cumberland Ave, Portland #988.”
Why I believe this to be the individual.
• The 1937 and 1938 Portland City Directories list George (and Leora) Gogan living at 45/60 Huntress ave., South Portland.
• The 1936 Portland City Directory on Ancestry is missing page 378, which should contain Gogan.
• The 1940 US Census lists George and Leora Gogan living at 7 Burnwell in South Portland. With them is their 8-year-old son, Merrill, who was born in Vermont. Thirty-year-old Leora was born in Maine and 40-year-old George was born in New Hampshire.
This photo was taken about 1936 when Merrill was about four years old.
