Effie Mae (Fisher) Burnside
Effie Mae playing cards or telling fortunes. (Mother: Hannah Macy Diveley; Father: Unknown) Burnside Bambrough.

Effie Mae was born in 1908 in Brownstown, IL. She was 16 years when she pretended to be a fortune teller or card player in this pic. Her last name listed on the back of the original photo is BURNSIDE, her first husband who died jumping off a moving train. Her father is unknown. A fake father surnamed Fisher is listed on her birth certificate. My Aunt Effie & my mother, Jennie, said that Fisher was not her father. Effie's stepDad is Henry Krempp. She had no children but two husbands: Bill Burnside & Bill Bambrough. She died in Peoria, IL. Her Mom, Hannah Macey Diveley, died 1922 when she was an about 14 years. Her half-sisters, Marie, Blanche, & Jennie, moved to Holdrege, NE to be taken care of by their Maternal Aunt Clara (nee: Diveley) Fleischman. Her brother, Henry, was unofficially adopted by Joe & Annie Nagel, & they eventually moved to Arizona near the Navajo Indian Reservation.

Catherine Matheson
Catherine Matheson
A photo of Catherine Matheson (born 1974) with Marion, Martha, and Doris. This is a studio photo of my ancestor Catherine Matheson (born 1874) and her friends, possibly all teachers in New York, taken in the 1890s or 1900s.
I have drawn a blank with Catherine for a good few years and hope that the other young ladies in the photo will have some descendants who will recognise them?
The names were written on the back but unfortunately there are no Studio/Photographer names to aid further identification.
Thanks for looking.
Little Lord Fauntleroy - Unknown Boy
Little Lord Fauntleroy - Unknown Boy
Had to post this adorable picture I found in an antique store. From Springtown, Ohio circa 1880's - 1890's a little boy in his Little Lord Fauntleroy outfit and hair looking like he wished the photographer would take the picture already! Just love it!

Hazel Vincent & Vern Burtleson, Oklahoma
A photo of Hazel Vincent & Vern Burtleson - Mutual, Woodward, Oklahoma ca. 1908. The back of the picture postcard says: "Hazel Vincent & Vern Burtleson representing Japanese." I find it interesting to see photographs of our ancestors dressed up in a costume.

Halloween Witch, 1930's
This Halloween witch costume is probably from the 1930's . . . and probably homemade. The girl's name isn't known but isn't she a cute witch?

A photo of the Paczoch's at the beach, San Francisco 1914 - a family outing to the beach. Previous picture posted of Albert and Mabel Paczoch. This adds some of his family, her mother and their daughter.
Thanksgiving Maskers circa 1910
Thanksgiving Maskers circa 1910
Thanksgiving maskers were children who dressed up on the last Thursday of November and begged for fruit and money. (This was before Halloween was celebrated.) There was a large uproar about this practice - newspapers denounced parents who allowed their children to follow this "hooligan" practice. These children look like they were having fun!
