Marion Kolley
I’ve “rescued” three old photographs identified as Marion KOLLEY or Midie or Midie Marion. All were taken in studios in Philadelphia, PA sometime in the 1880’s to 1890’s. One is specifically dated 1894. Two of the photographs refer to her as “Aunt” and one of them includes a “Merry Christmas” greeting as if she gifted the photograph to someone. Marion appears to be in her early teens in the earliest photograph and in per late teens or 20’s by the last photograph. I’m hoping to locate someone from this KOLLEY Family so that the photographs can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

Thanks,
Shelley
Date & Place: in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania United States

Nothing matching that spelling in familysearch. Org. I'd expect a death record if she died before 1915 or census records if she was here during a census year anytime around this photo. There are a few possible Marions with "soundalike" last names but at a quick look I don't see Kolley.

Check books for women's fashion styles. I vaguely remember that type of skirt and bodice being popular during a specific time period. Then search those records for similar names
