Hi,
I have in my old family photo album two unidentified photos of a married couple
from Ft Dodge plus a man from Gowrie, and now I wonder if there is a possibility
to put these somewhere on your web site (or in a local debate forum) to let viewers
take a look and possibly help to identify the persons?
I believe one or both of the married couple are immigrants from Norway, possibly
from the Kongsberg area or the Oslo (Kristiania) area. I have not found any close
relative that matches either the man or the woman in the photos, so I have no suggestion
for names.
Please see 2 photos attached: 1. Bridal couple in Ft Dodge, photo by Garrison Art
Co studio (i e around 1890). 2. Male person in Gowrie (possibly widower, judging
by clothes? Probably same man as in previous photo, but less hair). Photo by Walline
studio (i e around 1900). Regards, Fredrik
