Back row: 3rd from left George W. Sourk?, 4th from left John S. Sourk 
Middle row: 1st on left: Addie Sourk, 7th from left (including the 
babe in arms) Della Sourk, her daughter to her left (our right) Verna 
Campbell, I think the woman 2nd from the right end might be Edith 
(Barnes) Sourk - John's wife.

Also from another Sourk descendant:  My father (Ken Sourk) and I 
think that's my grandfather, Orville Sourk top row, far left. 
Maybe Aunt Ruth Sourk, the smiling girl in the front? I'm asking 
one of my Great Uncle Gerry Sourk's daughters for help with this. 
I'm betting the blurry child on the far left is Aunt Sarah, and 
that could be Uncle Gerry holding her. I've sent this photo to 
one his daughters and I'm sure she'll be able to add a lot of names. 
Since Aunt Sarah is a toddler in this photo, that would date this 
photo to about 1921/22. That would make my grandfather, Orville, 
around 18-years-old, and that looks about right.
