Two ladies in cloche hats and fur trimmed or fur coats. Most likely from the late 1920’s and early 1930’s. Fur coats were warm, durable and a sign of wealth or social status.
Rose Stone and Friend.
I paid a dollar for this snapshot at the antique store in Brainerd Minnesota.
Thanks for stopping by. Do come again:)
Update from Iggy:
Rose Rischall nee' Stone was born 27 Feb 1910 in Minnesota and died 4 Jul 1992 in Los Angeles, CA
The kicker? the house in the photo very closely matches the one in google street view for their home in 1930, 724 Hague Avenue, Saint Paul.
Further Update from Tina:
Rose Rischall (Stone being her maiden name) was my grandmother. Her father's name was not Morris, it was Issac. Rose was born in St. Paul Minnesota in 1910, and died in Los Angeles county California in 1992. The signature you have here, is a match to my grandmothers.
Update:
Rose's parents were Issac and Bessie and her siblings were Mildred and Walter according to the 1930 Census.
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MWYF-SQY might be a candidate (there are a lot of Rose Stones). The candidate was born 1910 to Russian father, polish mother. The father, Morris, is shown as a proprietor of a men's clothing store in 1930.

Fantastic! Love it when Google Street View helps the hunt like that!

ReplyDeleteInteresting. Seems Rose would have family that would love to see this. Hope it finds its way full circle!
ReplyDeleteIntense Guy, the signature is that of my grandmother Rose Stone. Your dates are correct, she was born in February 1910 and died in 1992. Her father however, is not Morris. My great grandfathers name was Isaac.

ReplyDeleteMy apologies Tina. I clicked on the wrong record and transcribed it.
ReplyDeleteThis is the correct one - showing her parent's Issac and Bessie. I hope you will want the photo!

:) Intense Guy,
DeleteThat's ok. I had to go back to my family tree to double check the names. There is a Morris in the family, however it is a different branch of the tree. :) Thank you for posting the picture and the signature. I love seeing all the old photos.
Tina, I am more than happy to mail you the photograph. You can contact me by clicking on the little yellow flower on the left side of my blog, it will take you to a page with my email address. Connie
