The photographer Nicholas Jahn was in Perham Minnesota in 1902.
The back is marked but difficult to read. It says Mildred, Nora + John. No last name.
Perham is about 50 miles from where I live in Minnesota. I wonder how this Cabinet Card made it’s way to California and now all the way back again.
Thanks for stopping by. Do come again.
Update from Grandmavickiann:
I think this might be the family.
1900 US Census
John Niebergal, Age 36
Caroline Niebergal, Age 26
Mildred Niebergal, Age 5
John F. Niebergal, Age 2
Nora Niebergal, Age 11/12
The family lived in Corliss, Ottertail, Minnesota. The father was born in Iowa and the mother in Minnesota.
In the 1910 US Census, the family is living in Ellsbury, Barnes, North Dakota, the surname being spelled Neebergall.
This family name is spelled/misspelled a variety of ways
I wonder which was who? (whom?)
ReplyDeleteIt is amusing to think of the card making its way around the country long after the subjects are gone. I'm guessing John on the left. The girl on the left is just darling.
ReplyDeleteNaturally, this photos is of particular interest to me!
