Carlotta Adelia is such a beautiful name. Could that be a First Communion Dress she is wearing? It looks white and so it would be a special occasion for her, rather than her sister, dressed less formally.

I hadn't noticed before how modern her hair style looked, but your right!<br /><br />I was struck by their shoes too! In fact I almost made mention of them in my post. It's too bad they weren't kept and handed down to future generations. I would have loved to see my grandfather's little lace-up boots and his sisters' buttoned boots.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Jana Iverson Lasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07687969613629975601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639808443739233405.post-59160640386194352272013-09-19T14:30:38.020-07:002013-09-19T14:30:38.020-07:00Hi Amanda,

I need to do more research. Hopefully I can find her death record. The trouble is, I'm not even sure where she died.
