Dorothy Emily Van Kleeck

A photo of Dorothy Emily Van Kleeck probably taken for Armistice Day. She would have been about 9 years old in 1918 when World War 1 ended. They are probably going to head into Kingston and watch a parade. This was a happy time for the family since it meant that Dorothy's oldest brother Gordon would be coming home from the war.

Date & Place: November 1918 at Van Kleeck family home in Kingston, Ulster County, New York United States

I love antique photographs. In addition to sharing old photos of my family, I am also going through my collection of "antique store people". They've been sitting in a storage tub in my back room much too long and maybe some of their families will be able to find them here. If I'm able to identify the people in the photo, I upload it not only to AncientFaces, but also to Ancestry, FamilySearch, and Find-A-Grave. If the person in the picture is a military veteran, the photo also goes on Fold3. I figure that the more places I upload these pictures, the greater the chance that a relative will be able to find them.
