"Elmer Fry"
Subject
Miller, Helen Virginia (Fry) (1917-1977)
Description
The name, “Elmer Fry”, is written on the glass plate of this image of a young girl.
After further research, we believe this is Helen V. Fry, the oldest child, of Elmer Luther Fry (1891-1962) and Maud Ellen (Riffey) Fry (1895-1975). Elmer lived in the Edinburg area and farmed as well as worked as a carpenter.
His daughter, Helen Virginia Fry, was his first-born child. This photograph was likely taken before Helen’s younger brother, Paul M. Fry, was born.
Helen married Paul Henry Miller (1908-1967). They had a son together, Jerry Paul Miller (1951-2015), and they remained in the Edinburg area all their lives.
When Helen died, her occupation was listed as a “laborer” at “Apple Products”.
