Shelley Cardiel rescues photographs from flea markets, eBay, you name it. She does what research she can to identify the family and then posts her findings on mailing lists, message boards, and photo sites in an attempt to reunite the pictures with family. What she does is awesome. I contacted her recently to see if she thought including them here might help. I hope it does! Please contact Shelley if you have information about her photos or project.
I’ve “rescued” two old photographs belonging to the QUICK Family. The first is a photograph of Kate QUICK taken at the C. Lang Studio in Tower, MN. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890’s with Kate in her 20’s at the time. The second photograph is identified as Mr. & Mrs. Jim QUICK and was taken at the same C. Lang Studio in Tower, MN in the 1880’s or 1890’s. The women in the photograph appears to be the same Kate QUICK pictured in the first photograph, though it is clearly not taken at the same time. The couple appears to be in their 20’s in this second photograph.
I’m hoping to locate someone from this QUICK Family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
