Peeking Into The Past Hannah Gregory Vintage CDV photo

Recently at auction I won a photo album with cdv photos in it.

Among the photos was this antique  cdv photo of an older woman identified as Hannah Gregory.

Other photos were identified as Fullers and Gregory members.

Yesterday I posted information and a photo of Grace Fuller on this blog.

I was not able to find Hannah Gregory on ancestry as of yet.

Photo shows her later in life dressed in a fine dress and wearing a bonnet

This photo is available on eBay at this time.

Perfect for the family member or the collector of old photos.

Peeking Into The Past of Minnie Grace Fuller Illinois 1878 - 1968

Awhile back at an auction in Duluth Minnesota I bought a photo album with pictures labeled Cripps

and Gregory.

Today's photo is of an adorable young girl about the age of 7 years old  identified as Grace Fuller.

Searching ancestry I came up with what I think is the information of Minnie Grace Fuller

who married Bartlett Eugene Allen. There was another photo of Grace and looking at the two

side by side I think I found my girl.

Back of photo is photographer in De Kalb, Illinois.

Grace and her family lived in Iowa most of her life.  Now while I can not be definite that I found the

right person on ancestry and do feel somewhat confident.  This photo is offered on eBay and looking

for a family member.

Thanks for stopping by. Grace

Monday Matrimony Vintage Photo of Bride and Groom Orphan Photo #120

Mondays are a perfect time to share a vintage photo of a bride and groom. This vintage CDV is from the early 1900s. We have no names to identify the bride and groom but back of photo tells us that it was taken at the Chas Tebo Photographers at N Side Broadway in Eau Claire Wisconsin.

I find the posing of the female standing next to the gentleman with her hand on his shoulder. They appear to be a well dressed couple.

Orphan Photo # 85 CDV Racine Wisconsin Lady

Hello everyone

Here is another CDV from my collection. This older lady is from Racine Wisconsin. I am guessing this CDV is probably from the early 1900's.

She seems very serious in this photo, but if you look close you can see just the slightest smile. Wonder what she is thinking about as she sits for her photo.

Dressed in her probably her best dress and around her neck she looks to be wearing a long necklace of small beads.

Sadly there is not name so we have no idea who this lady was. Photographer was Thomas on College avenue in Racine.

This was purchased some years ago in Minnesota at an estate sale.

Orphan Photo # 84 Kalmar Sweden Lady in 1900's CDV

Here is another of the vintage CDV 's I picked up in Minnesota some time ago. This is another pretty lady having her picture taken while living in Sweden. I am guessing she immigrated to Minnesota and brought the picture with her or could be she sent to a friend/family member who had already moved here.

Sadly we will never know since there is no name on the back.

This photo was probably taken late 1890's or early 1900's. I love the waves in her hair. She appears so sweet and innocent. There appears to be a small necklace around her neck.

At first I thought she had gloves on but not sure.

Photographer is Anna Winell of Kalmar

Orphan Photo # 83 Swedish Lady in CDV Vintage

Poising in this vintage CDV photo is a young woman from Sweden. She appears to be early 20's and dressed in probably one of her best dresses. She has a scarf wrapped around her neck with a piece of jewelry holding it together. In addition we can see a small corsage.

Photo was found among others in Minnesota.

Photographer F E Dahlberg Upsala.

Sadly we have no name so we do not know who she was.

Orphan Photo # 82 Swedish Lady in CDV Vintage Photo Sweden

Orphan photo is a Vintage CDV is of a middle age woman from Kalmar. Sadly there is no name on this photo so no way to identify her.

I love to look at these old photos and see how women dressed at different time periods.

No flesh showing, buttons up the front and a small collar.

This photo is probably from the early 1900's.

Vintage Orphan Photo # 78 CDV Sepia Man With Big Mustache #2

Here is another Vintage Sepia Photo Man With Big Mustache posting #2. This is a CDV or
carte de visite or visiting card picture of another handsome young man with a mustache, but he also has a very neatly trimmed beard. Dressed in probably his best suit he is posing for us. His suit is a 3 piece with wide collar. If you note his tie is different than yesterday's posting. This one is thin and has a piece of jewelry or button in the middle.

The back of the photo shows us that it was printed by U Scott's Photograph Gallery

in G W Miller's New Block Waterloo Iowa P O Box 255

Sadly we have no name so this is another orphan photo that I have bought for my online store to sell. We do no that he probably lived in Iowa at this time, He appears to be early 20's. CDV became popular around the 1860's to 1890's. This tells us he was born some time in the later 1800's. To better date this we would need to be able to date his clothing and I am not an expert on that. My best guess is that this is dated around 1890. What do you think?

She is dressed in a beautiful dress with darker trim decorating the bodice and wearing a hoop under her skirt that was the style then. Her husband is dressed in a three piece suit and appears some what older than her.

Orphan Photo # 51 is a beautiful vintage CDV wedding photo. Sadly there is no name listed on it. Photographer is Ida Harckner, Malung.

What a beautiful bride in her veil to the floor.I love vintage wedding photos and to see the change in style of wedding dresses.

The groom appears to be a few years older than the bride.

I would date this to the early 1900's or very late 1890's.
