Message Board Post:
I have a friend who purchased a photo album somewhere in western Nebraska or eastern
Wyoming (most likely Scottsbluff or Torrington, respectively). It contains only a few
small photos, but some were identified (one even had a location!). When I explained about
getting "lost" treasures like this reunited with family members, she agreed to
let me post the information. If family members are found who would like the photos, she
will send them (along with copies of the two album pages where the identifying info was
written in the album as opposed to being written on the photos). (She is not willing to
sell the album itself; she's a collector.)
Here are the photos:
1. "Uncle Oscar CHANDLERS house at Overton, Nebraska"
2. 1" x 1" photo of "Samuel" (as a young teen, I think)
3. 1" x 1" photo of "Ralph" (as a young teen, I think)
4. 1.5" x 2" photo of "Otis SUARE (GRUCE)" (a young adult man)
5. very dark photo of "Morris"
6. very dark photo of "Myrtle and Nora"
7. small photo of a young girl, perhaps 12 years, plus or minus, "Van Cleve" (I
have no way of knowing whether "Van" is her first name or part of her surname;
the photo has some extremely faint pencil writing on the back, but I couldn't decipher
it)
8. tiny photo (smaller than 1" x 1") of an unidentified little girl, about 3 to
5 years old.
Anyone who's interested, please email me with "Jan's photos" in the
subject line. Thanks!
