Jean-Marie's First Communion (1950)


Figure 1.-- Jean-Marie was the first boy to do his First Communion (1950). He was 11 years old. Jeam-Marie wears an Eton-suit style First Communion suit with a crisp Eton collar. It looks like a black jacket, light-colored vest, and I think grey trousers. He has a colored tie, but I'm not sure about the color. He has a sleeve bor and small medalion at the pocket. He also has white gloves. For the First Communion he has received a Bible and he has a rosary around his wrist. This is the same suit Jean-Marie would wear in the 1951 wedding and may be the same suit Henry wore for his 1955 First Communion.
