Cute CDV of Adele Bishop Orr taken in McHenry County Illinois. Carte de visite (CDV) were a type of photo patented in Paris in 1854, and were popular during the American Civil War due to their relative inexpensive cost.

Researching family history has been a hobby of mine for almost 30 years. I have several unidentified photos that may be family or friends.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth. So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her. For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces.

My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.
