The presence of all three known children (Leona b. 1921, Roland b. 1930, Charles b. 1931) allows for precise dating. Based on their apparent ages—Leona around 13, Roland around 4, and Charles around 2.5 to 3—the photo was likely taken around 1934. The clothing styles, particularly the woman's hair and the man's wide lapels, perfectly align with mid-1930s fashion.
