It might help to say where in the world your uncle lived. Hopefully, somebody will figure this out.

It's probably a Stinson Junior. Built in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

Absolutely: some good pictures here: skytamer.com/Stinson_SM-8A.html. There is one picture from the same angle, and it's a 100% match.
