Notes:
A) Grade school was a primary school through the 8th grade. Students included: Emma Olsen, Marie Olson (note different spellings), Eunice Akagi, Dorothy Wallace, and Martha Jacobs. (Many of these are married names...)
B) Karl Nelson and Judy Franklet say lower left house was Rosy and John Wilson, Jr in the smaller house, parents Olga and John in Hoonah
C) Karl Nelson and Judy Franklet say Lilliam Collier has the house in the upper left.
D) ANB hall was floated over from Douglas. Ed Kunz Sr. was part of that event. This was not the very first ANB hall, there was one before it. The ANB Hall in this photo fell down from rotten pilings. The old Presbyterian Church seen in several of these photos was then moved...brought forward up to the edge of Willoughby it seems, and became the new ANB Hall. Karl Nelson and Judy Franklet say it had a basketball court and interior balcony around it.
