Murosky Cousins - Late 1940's or early 1950's

This photograph of Murosky cousins was included in the Helen Tillie Bukowski Collection. When reviewing photographs in an album with my paternal grandfather, Arthur Murosky, indicated the girls were his Murosky cousins.

Two of the girls pictured are sisters, Rita and Rosalee Murosky, the daughters of Charles Murosky and Sophie E. Morosky. Rita was born in 1933 and her sister Rosalee was born in 1935.

The third girl pictured is Eleanor Sell, the daughter of Harry W. Sell and Esther Murosky. Eleanor was born in 1930.

The photograph was most likely taken in the late 1940's or the early 1950's. The exact date is unknown. There is another photograph of Eleanor taken in 1942 available at this link. The location of the photograph is also unknown but it is plausible the photograph was taken in Erie, Erie, County Pennsylvania.
