Fitzgerel Baby
I've "rescued" an old photograph of one of the children of Mrs. R. S. FITZGEREL which was taken at the Mattern Studio in Frankfort, KY. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's or early 1900's with the infant in the photograph about 1 year old. Mrs. FITZGEREL'S homestead is noted as being the house east of the School House. Someone has also written "God Bless you Sister" on the front of the photograph. I don't know if this means the baby was a girl or not. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding this family:

Robert S. FITZGEREL was b. 1868 in Kentucky to parents Richard Henry FITZGEREL (b. 1840) and Mary Jane FITZGERALD (1845-1937) or Mary Patricia OWENS (b. 1848) or Mary F. FITZGEREL. He was one of 5 children born to this couple including, Robert S.; Carry S.; Harriet E.; William T.; and Bascom FITZGEREL, all born between 1868 and 1879. Robert married Annie L. FITZGEREL and they had 5 children including Carrie E. FITZGEREL (1908 or 1909-1995).

Census records provide the following detail:

1920 census of Elmville, KY:

Robert S. FITZGEREL, age 51, born KY, parents born KY, a Shop Owner
Anna L. FITZGEREL, wife, age 29, born KY, parents born KY
Carrie FITZGEREL, dau, age 11, born KY
Jessie FITZGEREL, son, age 8, born KY
Richard FITZGEREL, son, age 6, born KY
Joe W. FITZGEREL, son, age 3, born KY
Clara F. FITZGEREL, dau, age 5 months, born KY

I am hoping to locate someone from the family so that this photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

Thanks,
Shelley

The simple act of leaving a comment shows you care.
A "found" photo, the buyer did a lot of research so maybe you can help reunite the family.
