Henrietta Kate Rosenthal Henley with her husband, William J. Henley and daughter Clara Belle Henley (McGee)
The picture above graphically illustrates what my mother meant when asked what her grandparents looked like. She said they looked like “Mutt & Jeff” (the cartoon characters). She said her grandmother was “as wide as she was tall” and her grandfather was “like Jack Spat who could eat no fat.” He was Irish Catholic and she was Russian Jew. I would like to know how they hooked up.
