From Left to Right: Richard K. Sinkler (1944-2007) - son of William Lukens Elkins Sinkler - or possibly Richard's brother, William L. Sinkler, Jr. - Richard would have been about 8 years old when this photograph was taken. People more informed than we may help us to positively identify this child.

The fish was a circa 500 lb. tuna (formerly called "Horse Mackerel" in these waters) - possibly the one described as being harpooned in “Leaves Folded Down” See: “Leaves Folded Down” by Louise E.
