Thi is a Cabinet Card from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

G H Ribble was the photographer in St Peter  (Minnesota)  He was in St Peter from 1894-1900, 1904 and 1906.  There was a notation at the Minnesota Historical Society that said he had a booth at the Nicollet County Fair.
The fellow appears to have some kind of diagonal stripe suit that really photographed quite well.

This is the final photo from Maquoketa Iowa.

The photographer was Skrivseth in Maquoketa, Iowa.

This photo looks to be from the 1930’s or 1940’s.….that is chinelle trim on her blouse.

Thanks for stopping by.

Update from MJM

Several comments on the Facebook page Retro Maquoketa have identified this person as Shirley Ann Kirchoff. A search on the site FamilySearch shows a birth date in 1927 to parents Edward Kirchoff and Hazel Morse. Appears to have married to William (Bill) Anderson

Update from Ann:

My mom says that is Lois Ann Kirkoff. Her family owned Kirkoff's locker in Maquoketa

I have four old photos from Maquoketa Iowa.  I will share them over the next four days.  One of my faithful blog readers MJM will take the photos and put them on the Retro Maquoketa Iowa Facebook page.  Perhaps they will find a home.  Back in June I had a wedding photo, Photo Number 2621 that was from Maquoketa. I have no idea if or how the photos are related.  These photos came from a friend, who owns an antique shop and she was going to throw them out.

Skrivseth was the photographer in Maquoketa Iowa

This is possibly a family photo of siblings a girl and three boys.  This photo is mose likely from the 1930’s.

The little tow head in the front has quite a gleam in his eyes.

Thanks for topping by.

This is a photo from the antique shop in Solway Minnesota.  I don’t usually buy color photos, but this one is older and has some names.

Man center Jim Addy

1st woman to left Kathy Addy (maiden name- McClure

Little girl in front Karen McClure

1st woman bridesmaid left Kristy McClure

So from that list of names I think the Groom is Jim Addy and the bride is Kathy McClure Addy.

This is the last day of June and our wedding series is over for another year. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Photo Number 2639

This is a photo from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

I love the way the flower girl is looking at the bride.  This photo was most likely taken in the church basement, most receptions were held there in the 1950’s and 1960’s.
