I wonder if my parents who both died in their 90's ever had childhood vaccinations, if they even had them back in 1915 or so when my parents would have entered 1st grade.....thinking on all the history.

My father was born in 1902 and I distinctly recall his smallpox vaccination scar. It looked much larger than mine and wasn't on the arm--it may have been on his leg but I can't recall. Anyway, they had smallpox vaccinations even back then. My mother had one too (born 1903).
