Because of the deaths of three children after her, Laura Jordan (standing, hand on her dad’s shoulder) was much older than her sisters. Floy is standing in the back at the left, with Lottie between (her hand is on a little brother). Their youngest sister, Cora, is leaning against their father.

Three of us are also firstborns. Motherline.
