Old Found Family Photos

"Hi - I am forwarding three photos to you all. There's a story behind them.  Somehow these and many more showed up at the Hancock recycling center. No one seems to know how they got there but one of the people who volunteers there recognized one of the photos from Sydney's book and thought they were too nice to throw out. So she contacted the Hancock Historical society and someone then brought them all to me. So I have this huge collection. Many are small photos in envelopes with Uncle Dick's name on them and are sorted by year from the late 20's to the 40's. Can anyone of you identify the rider or the two young children? The family portrait has everyone identified on the back - in pencil, neat handwriting, obviously done many years later since the young girls in front have married names indicated. I had never seen this one before - is it a common one?" - Willard

"I love this one - the way the little girl is watching with such affectionate interest while her baby brother is studying that strange sphere. Could that be Aunt Mary and Papa or Aunt Jane and Uncle Dick?" - Dad 
"I see Aunt Jane Greene!" - lws

Uncle Dick ?
