The second set of photographs was received
from Nicole Whitesides. She
sent the following message: These photos were recently developed
by my aunt who found the film with my deceased great grandfather's
belongings. She gave me copies to see if I could identify them
since I'm the family genealogist. I concluded that these are not
individuals related to my family and do not know why my great
grandfather had this film. From my research I know these photos
were taken around 1910 since the Manuel Indermill passed in 1910
and the grave is fresh in the photo. I found that he is buried
at Hug Cemetery in Pierron, Illinois, and I found an article that
stated he died in a train wreck and was an insurance agent. Also
the family trees on Ancesty.com show he is Swedish. The other
grave is of Adolph Ablitz who I found was born Oct 1839 in Sweden
and died 15 May 1908 in Baden, Illinois. He is buried in Pocahontas,
Illinois. All of these pictures came off the same roll of film.
Not sure if there is a waterfall near there that resembles the
one in the picture. Maybe someone can recognize the large house
and then we can find who owned it in 1910 and go from there.
