| Shelley Cardiel writes: I've "rescued" an old photograph of Great Grandma KARPEN taken at the Rieth Studio in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The photograph includes two women and a young child and was probably taken in the 1890's. The oldest women (Great Grandma?) appears to be in her 50's or 60's, the younger women in her 20's, and the toddler (could be boy or girl) would appear to be about 2 years of age. I'm hoping that someone can identify the photograph so that it can be returned to the family. If you are a member of the KARPEN family from Kenosha or know someone who might be, please contact me.

Can you identify this photo?
Taken about 1880 - based on woman's dress. Sign in the window says "Cat's Paw Heels - Nonslip Cushion." Sign on the building says "For Sale - J. Zens 204(?) Milw Ave" In the 1875 City Directory, John Zens was a shoemaker (but not at 204 Milw. Ave.) Could this be the John Zens family or just some people on the street? |
