Title

Oakland Wedding, 1909

Description

The  photo (found in the Oakland Public Library's Oakland History Room) was taken in 1909, before the 12/25/09 Yamashita family and 5 tailors and friends in Golden Gate Park photo was taken.

Tomi and Kishiro are in the last row on the right side of the photo, separated by an unknown woman. A woman in the Golden Gate Park photo is standing next to Tomi's right shoulder. Chizu is the baby in the background held by an unknown woman. Sus is sitting/slouching in the front row, next to a guy with a moustache. Kimi is standing behind the moustached guy. Very interesting that Tomi and Kishiro are separated from their 3 children. I have dated the photo based on the size of Chizu--she looks smaller than she does in the 12/25/09 GGP photo.
