I have an old studio photograph of Fred LOVELL of Syracuse, NY which was taken at the Winter's Studio in Syracuse, NY. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's or 1890's with Fred appearing to be in his 30's at the time the photograph was taken. Fred is identified as "Uncle" and notes also indicate "Ida B. SMITH sister" and Fannie LOVELL married Fred LOVELL". Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Fred and his family:
Frederick “Fred” Spaulding LOVELL was b. July 1860 or 1862 in Kane County, IL to parents Hiram McLallen LOVELL (1836-1912) and Frances E. SPAULDING (1839-1920) who were married in Montour Falls, NY in 1859. Fred had one sibling, a sister Mary “Matie” or “Mattie” L. LOVELL BECKER (1864-1936). Fred married Fannie Mae WALKER (1862-1951 dau of Margaret WALKER) in 1888 in Syracuse, NY and was a Clothing Manufacturer in Syracuse. Fred died 7 Sept 1927 in Syracuse, NY and is buried in the Grove Cemetery in Trumansburg, NY.
I would like to get the photograph to family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
