Help me identify this photo!
This photo was sent to me recently by a cousin, and I'm trying to figure out how the family is related to me. On the reverse is the name and address (NYC) of my
great-grandfather (Meyer Goldner) - the address he occupied between 1914 when he arrived in America and the mid 1920s when the family moved to Brooklyn. The family was based just north
of Iasi, Romania, in the village of Bivolari. I have considerable information on
the extended Goldner family, but less about my great-grandmother's family (the
Fibish or Fybish family). I'm hoping to figure out which part of the family this is within
my extended based on the relative ages of the individuals. The photo is larger
than 8.5 x 11 inches, and is mounted to a cardboard frame. I would appreciate
any help to figure out...
- What are the ages of the individuals?
- When/where do you believe this photo was taken? I'm guessing it was from Romania and was sent to Meyer in New York around 1915, but it could be earlier.
- Any clues about the family based on clothing, furniture, etc?
- How do you think these folks are related to each other. Grandparents seated, three daughters (one married) and their granddaughter? Or two daughters, a son, and a daughter-in-law?
I have a picture of my mather's gandmother which was left by my uncle Usher Zeilig Goldner born in february 1916 and dead in his own bed in his apartment during his sleep like his grandma ,in April 2011at age of95.
