I have no idea why my grandpa is dressed like this and wearing a miner's hat with these gentlemen. We are descended from a long line of miners, but my grandfather was a teacher and vice-principal at Grebey Junior High School in Hazleton, PA. Were they actually in a coal mine? I don't know all the fraternal groups my grandfather was in, but most (I believe) were Catholic or education associated. I could be wrong.
Any ideas?
UPDATE:
My mother just emailed me after I posted and told me it was a teacher in-service to either a coal mine or a meat packing plant. The headlamps lead her to believe coal mine, but the white jackets made her think it could be meat packing.
Halloween party?
ReplyDeleteMy mother just emailed me after I posted and told me that the teachers would visit different businesses as a part of their In-Service days. This was apparently an In-Service day trip to a local coal mine!
