Baby Son Born 1946 MS

Weldon Fortenberry, Jr.

son of Weldon Willis Fortenberry & Ivy Mae Smith

 

Weldon Fortenberry, Jr. 3 – months – old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Fortenberry, Baton Rouge. Recently, the Fortenberry clan met for a “get together” picnic, marred only by the absence of one of the nine children, the oldest son, Clifton, who was being treated in a San Diego, Calif., Navy hospital for wounds received in Leyie invasion. The family had hoped during the war, in which several members were serving, that all could attend the picnic. The presence of Little Weldon, who helped entertain the crowd, partly made up for the absence of Clifton, his grandmother reports.
