Grandma would have turned 89 just two hours ago!
This lovely colorized photo of my grandmother was shared with me by my A(u)nt Pam on 10/11/19. She shared with me today at lunch with my mother at Siena Bistro in Willow Glen that she keeps this photo on her desk. I can see why! What a bright light. Not exactly sure of grandma’s age or exact date, but she’s just old enough where I can see in her face the person she later became.
Very nice dress btw.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Edith PASCHKE which was taken at a studio in Everett, WA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 1900's with Edith in her teens at the time it was taken. Based on limited research and thanks to a family researcher I was able to gather the following information regarding Edith and her family:

Edith was married a second time to Harry W. BETTS (1885-1974) and she died 11 Sept 1969 in Everett, WA.
Edith’s sister Ruth Ann married Ulysses A. DEGMAN but they don’t appear to have had any children and they later divorced and Ruth Ann married Mr. MONROE.

I've "rescued" an old snapshot photograph of Louise COLLINGHAM with a baby in her arms which would have been taken sometime before 1940, most likely in Spokane County, WA. The photograph was in my Grandmother's old photograph album (they lived in Cheney, Medical Lake, Edwall, Waukon, and Espanola, WA) and I'd like to see it returned to the COLLINGHAM Family if possible. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Louise and her family:

Together they had two children including a son Raymond Edward Carl COLINGHAM (b. 25 Jan 1912 in Medical Lake, WA-d. 5 May 1925 in Medical Lake, WA). The family was living in Espanola, WA in 1920 through 1940. Louise died in 1961 in Washington.

I’ve “rescued” an old photograph of A. C. VAN BUREN of Shelton, WA and his brother (unnamed) which was taken at the Davis Studio in Seattle, WA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 1900’s with the men appearing to be in their 20’s or 30’s at the time it was taken. In addition to his name someone has also noted his address on the back of the photograph as “Route 2 Box 76” and also indicating that he lives “4 miles south of Grant School on Shelton and Agate Road next to Mr. INMAN”. Both men’s eyes are noted as blue on the back the photograph as well.
Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Mr. VAN BUREN:
Albert Charles VANBUREN or VAN BUREN died in 1948 and is buried in the Fern Hill Cemetery in Aberdeen, WA. Probate records indicate that he was a widower at the time of his death and that he was also known as Joseph VAN BUREN during his lifetime.
Census records provide the following information:
1920 census of Hoquiam, WA:
Joe VAN BUREN, age 46, born LA, parents born LA, a Saw Mill Laborer
Alice VAN BUREN, wife, age 47, born MI, parents born MI/IN
1930 census of Miller, WA:
Albert VAN BUREN, age 59, born LA, parents born TN/LA, a Farmer

Her parents are also noted as C. L. and Belle KLADY. Based on limited research I’ve located the following information regarding Candace and her family:
Candace Grace KLADY was b. 11 Jan 1881 in Woodland, WA to parents Columbia Lancaster KLADY (1845-1906) and Sarah Isabelle LACKY (1860-1930). Candace had a sister Alwilda May KLADY (1879-1973) and two half-brothers born to her Mother and her second husband, they are Robert GEER (b. 1900) and Cecil GEER (b. 1907). Candace married Herbert Joseph TURNER (1880-1966) and she died 16 Jan 1910 in Lane Co. OR and is buried in the Odd Fellows Cemetery in Woodland, WA.
Census records provide the following details:
1900 census of Lancaster, WA:

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

I’ve “rescued” an old tintype photograph of children Cora and Arthur DEAN which appears to have been taken in the 1870’s or 1880’s. There is no studio or location indicated on the paper sleeve that it is mounted in so I have no idea where it originated. The photograph was located in Washington State though that certainly doesn’t mean it was taken there. The two children in the photograph appear to be about 2- 4 years old at the time. Cora is the youngest of the two children. If you are a member of this DEAN Family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,

I’ve “rescued” an old photograph of two children identified as the son and daughter of Mrs. F. R. BAGLEY which was taken at the Davis Studio in Seattle, Washington in the early 1900’s. The children appear to be about 4-7 years old at the time, the youngest being the boy. The following address appears on the back of the photograph for Mrs. BAGLEY – Route #5 Box 232 Seattle WA with a note that this is at the “Southwest corner of Foster School Grounds in Foster” which I believe is now within Tukwila, WA. In addition the name Mrs. Geo HEPENSTON also is written on the back as if that might be who the photograph was gifted to?
I’m hoping to locate someone from this BAGLEY Family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of this family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
