Jake O. Jones slices watermelon at a family picnic in the Washington, D.C., area during the summer of 1951. Beside him are his niece Patricia Beaver and his son Gary Jones. In the background are Jake's double-first-cousin Ollie Yeatts Jennings, and his wife Eileen Jones. Ollie's sister Carrie Yeatts Barbee is exiting the picture to the right, and Jake's sister (Patricia's mother) Reba Beaver is mostly hidden behind Gary.
