Our
correspondent, Jim Choquette, from Austin, Texas, has graciously sent us these
1920 photographs. Pictured are some of his grand-parents's children;
i.e. those of Joseph Choquette and Malvina Hubert, who were married in Salix, Woodbury
County, Iowa, in 1874. Joseph and Malvina had a total of 12 children.

This is a picture of Auguste Choquette, Jim's father, while a student at Columbia University. As he was a college athlete, he was sent to Fort Sam Houston, outside of San Antonio, Texas, to play on their baseball team. He later played professional baseball for the San Antonio Missions, a farm team for the Saint Louis Browns. That is where/when he met Jim's mother, and how they came to be Texan's!) |
