This picture was likely taken about 1912 in Dickinson, North Dakota. If this picture was taken as early as 1910, then the baby in Mary's arms is likely, Baby Mary born June 14, 1910. She died on April 12, 1913. If the baby is Mary, then the older girl is Philomina; if the baby is Mildred, then the older girl would also be Philomina and the picture would have been taken after April 12, 1913. But why would Mildred be in what appears to be a baptismal dress at age nearly 1 1/2 years old?

Until we have the answer to this question, this is our best take on the picture taken about 1912:   

Father, Anton Lisko and Mother, Mary Fisher. The children, left to right are: Tony, Philomina, Isadore Vincent, and Mildred.

Mildred, the infant in Mary’s lap, appears to be in a baptismal dress and the family is dressed for the occasion. Mildred was born on 16 January 1912.

The oldest boy, my father, Isadore Vincent, was born on 15 October 1905 and would be 6 years and 3 months old in this picture.

Tony was born on 18 July 1907. He would be about age 4 ½ to 5 in this picture.


Philomina, born 9 February 1909, is about age 3.

Another child, Mary, born of Anton Lisko & Mary Fisher, Mary, died on April 12, 1913 of an accident. She drowned in a drainage ditch across from the Lisko home in Dickinson, North Dakota.  

Anton Lisko is about age 31 and Mary Fisher age 27 in this picture.
