Maid of Honor


Toronto, Ontario, about 1950. Women standing up in the bridal parties of newly-arrived Displaced Persons frequently work traditional folk dress. Here, my Dad's twin, Jonė, is the maid of honor. Jonė wears the folkdress her mother—my paternal Grandmother, Tatjana—sewed in 1939.

Thanks to my Toronto Cousin for making this photo available to us.
