SPOTSWOOD -- From left, David Corrigan, Jayne Corrigan, Karen Kilian and Doug Corrigan stopped for a photo before heading off to the first day of school in Spotswood in this undated photo.

Currently, children in this age range in Spotswood would attend the G. Austin Schoenly Elementary School and the E.R. Appleby Elementary School.

While the lunchboxes carried by the two boys cannot be identified, enlarging the photo shows that Jayne is carrying a Barbie lunchbox; the decorations on its face show it to be a "Barbie and Midge" style box which dates to 1963, according to lunchboxvillage.com.
