I've "rescued" an old photograph of Clara UTZ which was taken at the H.T.
Biel Studio in Terre Haute, Indiana. The photograph was probably taken in
the 1880's with Clara appearing to be in her 20's at the time. The
photograph was found in an album full of what appear to be schoolmates
likely from the Indiana State Normal School.
Based on limited research I believe that this is a photograph of Clara E.
UTZ daughter of John & Ellen UTZ who were living in Perry, IN during the
1880 census. John age 42 born in IN to parents born in Maryland, Ellen age
35 born in Ohio to parents born in OH and MD respectively were living with
Clara E. UTZ age 16 born in IN.
I'm hoping to locate someone from Clara's family so that this wonderful old
photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of
this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
