Baby Ridenour
Back of photo says "Nora B. Ridenour, Hartline, Washington". Found with photo of Nicholas Ridenour, so this may be one of Nora and Nick's children: Hazen, Frances, Virginia or Myron. I am not a relative and have no other info on this baby or family. Photo found in an antique store in Everett, Washington.
Nora Ridenour's Husband
Photo found in an antique store in Everett, Washington. Back of photo says "Nora B. Ridenour, ST. John, Washington". Since the photo is of a man and not "Nora", I assume this is her husband Nicholas S. Ridenour found in the 1910 US Census living in St. John, Whitman Co., WA. Nora B. is listed in the household with Nicholas as his wife; also in household are children Hazen O. and Myron S. Ridenour. Nicholas was born in TN about 1862. The couple is also listed in St. John, Wa in 1930. Possible maiden name for Nora is "Oaks" as a Sallee F. Oaks is a 63 year-old widow living with the family in 1930, and is named as "mother". I am not related to this family and have no other info.

Mary (Sositko) Ridenour with her son and Aunt Mary
This is a photo of Mary (Sositko) and son, Ronnie Ridenour with Mary's aunt Mary (Zlatykanicz) Kroczolowski (Kroczaloski, Kroczalowski or Krocyolowski) taken about 1940 in Hamilton, Butler County, Ohio. This photo was taken the same day as the photo of the Zlatykanicz siblings (Bertha, Mary, Andy, and Frances) that I've added to this website. The year in guessed by Ronnie's age compared to the photo of him when he was an older boy with an older Bertha and John that I also added to this website.
Mary Kroczaloski could not speak English. Her sisters, Bertha and Frances could speak English but it was spoken with broken English.
A descendant of Mary Kroczaloski told me that Mary was closer to her son and grandson than her daughter and granddaughter. She seemed to favor the boys. She may not even have realized she was doing it.

He liked the song 'Roses Are Red (My Love)' and he would sing along with the song. She also remembers her grandfather singing along with the song Blue Velvet (or Blue on Blue) but he may have heard Bobby Vinton singing the song on TV or radio before the album was released because her grandfather died by May 1963.
There is an audio tape from December 1962 (Christmas) of John Sositko talking (in English), singing Polish songs and Christmas songs in Polish on it.
