I seek to digitally preserve historical photos for others that might be looking for them. When possible I reunite the original copies with descendants, free of charge. Here are more photos in my ever growing collection. 

If any of these are your ancestors please contact me.

Miss Hattie Booth

307 N. Main St.

Cleburne, Texas

This picture was taken in my apartments at the New Kentucky Hotel. Wearing a tea gown that I wore at a chafing dish party. Love to all, Lelia.




Back reads: "Ethel and Ellena BROWN. Aunt Mollie childrens"
Taken by S. B. HILL of Austin, Texas

I believe this is Myrtie Ethel BROWN (left) and older sister Maggie Ellena BROWN (right) of Austin TX. The eldest children of Mollie Augusta BIRKNER and James Rice BROWN.



"Adelaide WHITING, December 1896"
Taken by BUTLER, Fulton and Bond Streets, Brooklyn New York



"For Maud & Clay? Return to Charles Decker"
Taken by HOTCHKISS of Norwich, New York in 1888
Based on approximate age, date of photo, and county I believe this is Charles W. DECKER son of Selah and Mary HUBBARD DECKER



Friedrich KRAFT


Written in German: "Unser Lieber Vater Friedrich KRAFT, Brauereibesitzer in Midda in Oberhessen, geboren zu Meiningen in Thueringen am 3 Oktober 1841, getauft am 11. Oktober und konffirmiert am 12. Mai 1856, evangelisch-lutherisch."

German to English translation: "Our beloved father Friedrich KRAFT, brewery owner in Midda in Oberhessen. Born 3 Oct. 1841 in Meiningen Thuringen, baptized 11 October and confirmed 12 May 1856, Evangelical Lutheran."


Group Photo taken in Fairhaven, Massachusetts on August 4, 1901
Mr. and Mrs. ENGEL, Florence ENGEL, Mr. AMBROSE, Miss Desire NICKELS, Edna NICKELS, Mrs. WILCOX, Kid McGLAUFLIN/McLOUGHLIN, Mother and I.

Desire NICKELS would have been 35 at the time of this photo so she may be the woman standing in the middle of the photo or the woman seated on the far right. Her younger sister Edna NICKELS would have been 19 so she is likely one of the two girls seated in the front. 

If Mr. and Mrs. Engel are the parents of Florence ENGEL then they are George W. ANGELL and Lydia HOWLAND ANGEL. They may be the man and woman on the back left or the man and woman on the back right.
