Ada McDowell Graduate of University of Denver
This is a photo of Ada McDowell who graduated from the University of Denver with a bachelor's degree and then a master's. Was supposed to teach business arts in Tillamook, OR school district but don't think that happened. She moved to Chicago and worked for a law firm there until her death around 1981.


Our Italian Ancestors?
This is on a heavy metal piece. I had them digitally redone. I think this is a picture of my Great-great grandfather Louis (Luigi) Mazza with his wife, Luisa, and my great-grandmother Mary (Maria) taken in Italy before they came to the US in about 1877. They came into Vermont but then to NY by 1890.


Robert McDowell of Brooklyn, NY?
I have the original of this photo and was told that it was my grandmother's favorite uncle, Robert McDowell. This Robt was born in Brooklyn in 1852 and moved to CO @1886. The crosspiece has the number "84" which is the National Guard unit for Brooklyn. Since this Robert McDowell wasn't old enough to serve in the Civil War, it may be a different McDowell.
Who is the soldier in this picture? It was supposedly taken after the Civil War. I was told this was a grandmother's favorite Uncle. But that McDowell was born in 1852 and was too young to serve in the Civil War. The crosspiece indicates his unit as the 84th. This was the National Guard unit for Brooklyn, NY. This uncle's father was also named Robert McDowell and he came to the US from Ireland @1850.
