Mother graduated high school in 1928.
Journaling reads:
My mother told me that her parents sent her out of town to business school to separate her from an unsuitable boyfriend. Apparently it worked. After she finished at business school she got a job in another city where she met a railroad man and married him. I got to read more about it in a diary from a little before and after high school graduation. Her writing allowed me to match photos she had to the cast in her life including this one of the boyfriend. I also saw her high school grades that show a big drop in her senior year. By contrast she did very well at the business school. I did a little research on some of her friends and found Claude was much older, one of his sisters, Ida, being my mother's age. Her diary seems to show he was pressing her on their relationship more than she was comfortable with. She never mentioned any regrets about him, so I think my grandparents got it right. He looks intriguing and she must have been quite flattered by his attentions.
