School: For Phillip, Elmhurst College
School Location: Elmhurst, Illinois
Year: 1948.
School: For Judy, University of Illinois

These photographs were given to me, by my fellow family history buff, Jen Johnson. We both have been trying to hunt more information on the Allen side of the family. Since Allen is a common name, this has been a difficult task. Phillip and Judy are currently still living, and are the children of the late Neil G. Desenis and Florence E. Allen Desenis.

I have many fond childhood memories of my first cousin Florence, and on occasion met my second cousin Judy, whom at the time lived on the East Coast. I also have been introduced to Phillip, who lives in Illinois and is a retired Minister.

I welcome any additional comments or information from family and friends about these photographs.

  1. I am one of Rev. Phil Desenis' grandchildren and am also trying to discover more about my grandfather's family for him.
    If you need more information on Florence, please let me know and I may be able to gather photos and details about her from my grandfather or my great aunt Judy.
    Also, do you happen to know who Florence's great-grandparents were (Johana Lueth Waswo Giermann's parents)?
