THE AMERICAN HISTORICAL PHOTO ARCHIVE • FRAMED PRINTS • STOCK IMAGES

The gentleman on the left and the lady seated in front of him are my grandparents. They immigrated to the US from Hungary. I'm not sure when or where the photo was taken. I was told that my grandmother died during the great flu epidemic around 1918. I think it's interesting how the photographer tried to have a scenic background, but it wasn't quit large enough. I also found the wrapping around the other woman's feet unusual.

I know very little about this adorable tot, but I'm pretty sure she was a sister of one of my great-grandparents. The picture was taken in Texas, c1910.

Caption on the back said "Eating Dinner at Rock Water Hole; February 9, 1919." Taken in the Texas Hill Country. The man on the far left is my great-great grandfather Travis Stillwell; the others are his friends.

When my great-grandfather's train went by his house, he always blew the whistle to hail my great-grandmother. New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad.

Josephine, my grandmother, around 1940. This was probably taken in Harlem.

Ward Road, Shanghai, June 22, 1932. I found this photo in a junk shop in England about 20 years ago. Do I win a prize for submitting the first Chinese picture?

[Very nice. You win ... a big round of applause! Clapclapclapclap - Dave]
