Thomas & Christine PRAHL
I have in my possession an original photograph of Thomas & Christine PRAHL which was taken at the Piper Studio in Manchester, NH on their Silver Wedding Anniversary (married 25 years) sometime in the 1890's most likely. The couple appears to be in their 40's at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding this couple:
Thomas PRAHL was b. 10 Apr 1854 in Malmo, Sweden to parents Bengt Christensson PRAHL (b. 1833) and Karin THOMASDOTTER (b. 1826) who were married in Malmo, Sweden on 7 Aug 1858. Thomas had only one sibling, a brother Carl August PRAHL b. 1850. Thomas married Christina or Christine or Kristine or Kirstin ANDERSON or ANDERSEN or ANDERSDATTER (1851-1941) in 1874 and they had 5 children including Theodora “Dora” Eleonora Christine or Christina; Carl Thomas Alfred Christian; Charles August; Lindina or Lindine Christine; Astrid Alexandra Gustava Eleonora; and Esther Eleanor or Elenora Astrid PRAHL, all born between 1874 and 1884.
Thomas died 19 Jul 1934 in Manchester, NH and is buried in the Pine Grove Cemetery in that city. Christina was b. 21 Feb 1851 in Sweden and her father was Thomas ANDERSON. Christina died 13 Oct 1941 in Haverhill, NH or MA and is buried along with her husband in the Pine Grove Cemetery in Manchester, NH.
I am hoping to get this photograph to their family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley
