This negative envelope says, “Mr. Mitchells Daughter’s Baby - Sept 1941 - Mrs. Robert E Sargent 130 Chatillon Road, Rome, GA.”
Why I believe this to be the individual.
• The World War II draft card for Robert Edward Sargent indicates he lived at 130 Chatillon Road, Rome, Floyd County, Georgia. The person who would always know his address was Mrs. M. Ella Sargent, 22 Fountain St., Havehill [Haverhill], Mass. Robert was born on 25 October 1902 in Haverhill.
• The 1940 US Census lists Robert E Sargent and his wife Dorothy living in 130 Chatillian Road, Riverside, Floyd County, Georgia. Dorothy was 33 and born in Massachusetts. With them is their son, Robert B. Sargent, the baby was 0/12 in age, indicating he was born in March or April 1940.
• Ancestry Trees suggest Dorothy is Dorothy Mitchell, which confirms the child is Mr. Mitchell’s Daughter’s Baby. Dorothy’s father was Clarence B. Mitchell and Dorothy was born 23 September 1906.
I am sure this is a photo of Robert B Sargent in 1941.
