Vintage Family Gathering: Dablin Family Photos

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I bought these photos from an estate sale. The images seem to be focused on the Dablin family. The photo is a family gathering for a birthday.

The date on the back of the image is June 5, 1949.

The following names are also printed on the back:

L to R: Edgar B. Donaldson, Almond M. Jackson, Carl A. Burnham, Forest H. Bermp, John A. Dablin, John B. Coyle, John K. Dablin (his birthday), Marion L. Donaldson, Jessie J. Mann, Elizabeth J. Dablin, Ruth M. Coyle with John B. Coyle, Jr., and Ellen V. Dablin

Take at 4 Bishop Ave., Warcester

I copied the words down as best as I could read them.

What do you think? I think they are having fun.

Until next time…peace

I purchased this image from an estate sale. I don’t have any factual information. I did a Google search. The results suggests this is Pukapuka, formerly Danger Island in the Pacific Ocean.

The AI overview suggests this is a image from 1958.

Young Girl

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I am assuming this young lady was photographed for communion. I am placing the photo around the 1920s.

The photo does not have any identifying marks. The only clue is the name of the studio: Frank Harper Studio at 7719 Harper Ave.

Many of the other photos from this lot were from the Detroit area. There is a Harper Ave in Detroit. But I can only guess that this was the place of the studio.

Celebration

Posted on by Rebecca C.

The young girl on the right is proudly holding a doll. The dress of the doll looks handmade. I am wondering if this was a birthday gift or other celebration. All the children are dressed well which gives me the impression the day was a special occasion.

I am guessing the photo was taken in the late 1930s or early 1940s.

Birthday Smiles

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I am guessing, that the photo was taken on the little girl’s birthday. She has such a big smile.

I don’t have any information on the photo. From the clothing and photo style, I am guessing 1940s.

Two Girls Reading a Book

Posted on by Rebecca C.

This is the cabinet photo. So, I am placing the date around the 1900s. I do not have any information on the photo. I wish I did. I would love to know the girls’ names.

The girls are very well dressed in the photo. They obviously come from a wealthy family.

International Picnic Day

Posted on by Rebecca C.

Since today is International Picnic Day, I thought I would share this image. I am placing this photo in the late 1940s.

There was no information on the photo. I am guessing from the style of clothes and photo type.

Do you like picnics? I am wondering if she isn’t camping or on a road trip. There’s coffee of the table. The picnic basket appears to be full.

A Couple and Their Dog

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I actually have a lot of photos of this couple. Unfortunately, none of the images have any identifying marks.

Since they are posing out front on a porch, I am wondering if they bought a new home.

From their style of clothing and the type of image, I place this photo in the early 1940s.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace
