It concerns 2 children named John Jr and "Bob" who is a girl, a woman likely their grandmother who was a sister to my great-grandmother, and that poodle. The man pictured with John Jr and the poodle MIGHT be my great-grandmother's brother, but I can't find any census or other records to say for sure. And I can't find the parents of John Jr and Bob.
