Photos we remember
Special moments of places and people captured on film and shared for us to remember.
Lizzy Canedy:
This is a portrait of my great-grandmother Eva Alice Canedy (nee Call). She was William Floyd Canedy's mother. I don't know much about her as my grandfather didn't know much either but she's a lovely looking woman who died far too young.
I was lucky enough to this photo negative, which itself was a copy made of the daguerreotype in the 1980s, in my family's collection. Even luckier to have a transparent media adapter attachment of a flatbed scanner. This is perhaps the first time this photo has been viewed in almost 40 years, and I'm happy to get to share it with the world.

I have an old studio photograph of Guy KETTERER which was taken at the Burkholder & Co. Studio in Orrville, OH. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Guy appearing to be about 3 years old at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Guy and his family:
Guy David Dewitt KETTERER was b. 8 Oct 1889 in Cleveland or Apple Creek, OH to parents William “Willie” KETTERER (1862-1913) and Sybil Della BARNES (1864-1942) who were married 6 May 1884 in Wayne County, OH. Guy was one of four children born to this couple including Cora E.; Baby Boy; Baby Boy; and Guy David Dewitt KETTERER, all born between 1884 and 1889. Guy married twice, first to Caroline STOCKON (1893-1931) on 2 Apr 1918 in Hillsborough County, FL and second to Anna “Annie” Margaret or Marie SANDS (1874-1958) in 1933 in Pinellas County, FL, they divorced in 1951.
Guy died 28 Jul 1955 in Tampa, FL and is buried in the Westlawn Cemetery in Mount Eaton, OH.
I would like to get this photograph to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley

This photo is of widow Robert Waldman Longo who had two sons, Richard and William. Roberta disappeared around 1939 when her sons were babies. According to Richard, he was playing ball in his front yard when Roberta said she was going to the store. She got into a taxi and was never heard from again. Roberta's husband, William "Toots" Longo died in 1939. Roberta's mother Nellie Waldman raised the boys after Roberta disappeared. A detective named Basil Creek from the Dayton Police tried to find Roberta shortly after her disappearance to no avail. Please contact me if you have any information about Roberta. We would love to find any information about her.
