  1. Do you by any chance have any details regarding any of these photos? I have just been given a large collection of unlabeled family photos, and a few of these children strongly resemble that of a family in my collection. The image I have was taken by J.C. Baum in Whitesboro, TX, and I am in the process of trying to track down who they might be.

  3. We've got a Manderfeld two of my wife's ancestors that look like they were taken for a confirmation. If you'd like a copy, shoot me an email at sully858@protonmail.com.

  4. Came across this site while researching Manderfeld. A photograph taken by Manderfeld in New Ulm was passed down in family documents.

    1. Thanks very much for your comment! I went back and looked at Manderfield again and found a couple newspaper items. Your photograph must have been finished before 1897.
