Aline Ford Family Photos

These pictures show gatherings of Aline's grandchildren. Marjorie moved away from Los Angeles and after that gatherings were fewer.
1954
This appears to be the second birthday party for Cary and Gary at the Andrews house on Valerio in Van Nuys in September 1954. Standing, L to R, Carol Andrews, Marjorie Robertson Andrews, Margaret Andrews, Aline Ford Pemberton, Edward Andrews. Seated nearest: Michael Thompson (looking at camera), Kevin Thompson. On right bench, from near: Gary Andrews, Christine Denton, Cary Andrews, unknown. On left bench, from near: unknown, unknown, Kelly Howard, Judith Andrews.
1956
Judging by the age of baby Paul, this was taken around fall of 1956. Is that also at the Valerio house? Men in the back: Edward Andrews, Gerry Thompson, George Howard. Women and teenagers: Aline Ford Pemberton, Margaret Andrews, Carol Andrews, Judith Andrews, Marjorie Robertson Andrews, Aline Beeson Thompson, Beverly Beeson Howard. Children in front: Christine Denton, Kevin Thompson, Cary Andrews, Gary Andrews, Michael Thompson (with baby Paul Thompson on his shoulders), Kelly Howard.

1984
Here is the latest that features members of all three branches of Aline's family. Aline Ford and Beverly Beeson had passed away by this time. The occasion was the wedding of Paul Thompson and Debra Ford in May 1984, in San Diego. A lot has changed since then... Standing: Mark Mason, Darrel Lee, Kevin Thompson, Gerry Thompson, Paul Thompson, Michael Thompson, Patrice Schmidt Andrews (with children), Gary Andrews, Scott Andrews (with child). Seated: Mary Gail Thompson Mason, Eugene Lee, Kelly Howard Lee, Aline Beeson Thompson, Debra Ford Thompson, Marjorie Robertson Andrews, Annamarie Rodriguez Andrews (with child). Scott and Mary Gail didn't make the cut for the earliest photos, but here they are, married, and Scott with two children. Somebody please identify the Andrews children.
