Friday's Photo: Rockaway Beach

Doris wrote " Rockaway - July 2, 1949 me, Jeannette, Marie, Lil, Rita"

Last week, I posted a photograph of my mother at what I thought was Jones Beach and she corrected me saying that it was Rockaway Beach. Her parents lived in Queens at the time and Rockaway Beach is a neighborhood on the south shore of Long Island in the borough of Queens.  


This Friday's Photo, also at Rockaway Beach, is one that once belonged to my mother-in-law, Doris Staubach Quinn. Doris is at the top left, looking so very glamorous at the beach. At the time, Doris lived in Manhattan with her mother and was working in an office. It is thought that these are co-workers as some of these women have been found in other photos from office events or parties.
