Antique Photograph Album, image #37


The name of this child was unknown until the album page was scanned, enlarged, and more contrast added. On the page was written "Mabel Chatterley, cousin."

Unfortunately, we do not know anything more about this "cousin." The Chatterley name does not appear in any of our Curtis family records - at least not yet. Perhaps after more research into the collateral family lines on our Curtis family we will discover exactly how this child fits into our family tree.

The photographer was Barrows at 55 West Bridge St., Grand Rapids, Michigan. The carte de visite style card was light cream with rounded corners. Just knowing that this photograph was taken in Grand Rapids, Michigan offers hope that more records and extended family members to our Curtis family will soon be found.
