"Dear Uncle and aunt, We are sending you this photograph accompanied by our best wishes of happiness and prosperity for the year 1920. Your nephew and niece, Joseph, Alice" Quoted translation from Felix

Linda's collection

"C'est personne sont, Joseph Roberge, (un cousin )sa femme Alice Roberge, celle-ci est la demi-soeur de Salomée. C'est un autre mariage dans la famille entre la parenté, ils étaient cousins au premier dégré (first cousin) Le grand-père auguste Roberge a eu trois femme, les deux premières etaint les deux soeurs. Malvina et Salomée Nadeau. Les parents du cousin Joseph Roberge étaient Louis Roberge (frère dAuguste) et Marie Nadeau ( soeurs de Malvina, Solomée, etc.)." (quote from Yvette)

I think she is saying that Joseph Roberge is first cousin to Salomee while Joseph's wife is half sister to Salomee. Joseph and Alice were first cousins because Auguste Roberge sr. married three times--the firsty two wives were sisters, Malvina and Salomee Nadeau. The parents of cousin Joseph Roberge was Louis Roberge (Auguste sr's brother) and Marie Nadeau (sister of Malvina and Salomee, etc.).

The boy is Jean-Paul and the girl is Annette (but am not sure which child is which). The family lived in Charny.

Thanks to Yvette for the identifications
