Shelley Cardiel rescues photographs from flea markets, eBay, you name it. She does what research she can to identify the family and then posts her findings on mailing lists, message boards, and photo sites in an attempt to reunite the pictures with family. What she does is awesome. I contacted her recently to see if she thought including them here might help. I hope it does! Please contact Shelley if you have information about her photos or project.
Rescued 000-001: Parman — Fred Parman and Bertha Child c. 1880s-1890s
I’ve “rescued” an old photograph identified as possibly one of Fred & Bertha PARMAN’S (from Chicago) children which was taken at the Shaefer Studio in Paw Paw, MI. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880’s or 1890’s with the baby less than 1 year old at the time. I’m . . . [Yes! There’s more!]
