This query came to the page and maybe some can help identify the place in these photos? "My brothers and I were in a children's home in Oklahoma between 1949-1952. Can you confirm if we were at St. Joseph's. Wesley John Stevens; Sharon Lynn Stevens, Edward Price Stevens. The two older children would have been there in 1949; the youngest would have joined us in Jan 1952. Attached is a picture of the two older children on the steps of what I've always believed to be the home. I have checked with the Baptist's Childrens home and they have no record of us. Your assistance is very much appreciated.

Imprint says "Libbey Hall" at top of the building, "Children's Home" over porch. ca. 1949 Location unknown. THIS APPEARS TO BE THE CHILDREN'S HOME OR ORPHANAGE AT TIPTON, OKLAHOMA. <https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc485347/?q=Tipton> that was a Church of Christ facility.

Location unknown ca. 1950 - Maybe in Kansas or Oklahoma |
If you can help - post a comment. Thanks!
