My wife has been sifting some family photos while we prepare for a funeral service. She came to me with a picture of her great-great-grandparents, Albert and Alice Roberts. Also in the picture are three children: Lillian, Mayme (Mamie), and Ola (Ruby Viola). While the names match up with some of your research the kicker is the parents. While they are obviously older, they almost have to be the couple in your picture above. There are strong physical resemblances and hair styles, clothes, the picture setting, etc. all match up. I will try to send you a scan of the picture, and you can use it in your blog if you wish.Jim Priebehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01656765090303558540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-71723680292028802022018-12-12T22:30:42.557-08:002018-12-12T22:30:42.557-08:00Yes, that memorial relates to one of the two famil...Yes, that memorial relates to one of the two families I found in the Council Bluffs newspapers.

Though the card is the same color on front and back (the dark green making it extremely hard to decipher the couple's name), the dates are guiding me to an earlier decade than I was looking at earlier. I have a long way to go before I figure this out, but this is a start!Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-15691397400124124272018-12-11T22:38:07.591-08:002018-12-11T22:38:07.591-08:00Yes, she is.

I will guess that the card is green on the front and another color on the back 1880-1890.:)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-28677721187365101412018-12-11T05:46:29.957-08:002018-12-11T05:46:29.957-08:00She is so pretty!
