Benita (McGinnis) McCormick
(1889 - 1984)
The photographs below are from my great-aunt Benita's scrapbook, in which she reminisced about her first trip abroad. Here, a few of her memories of Paris.
Benita McGinnis, possibly in the Bois de Vincennes, Paris, France, about 1913. 2" x 3" photograph from her scrapbook. |
View from the Eiffel Tower of the Champ de Mars and the Grande Roue de Paris Ferris Wheel, about 1913. The ferris wheel, built in 1900 for the Paris Universal Exposition, lasted until 1920. 2" x 3" photograph from Benita McGinnis' scrapbook. |
"Boys in Paris instruct me," Benita wrote in her scrapbook. Paris, about 1913. |
