Little Ones around the Turn of the 20th Century!

Such a sweet little girl – hands held in front of her – just like my grandmother used to do!  Love the ringlets and her white lace dress.

This must be a special occasion for this young gent!  Don’t you like the knickers?  Photo taken by Fordtran Brothers Studio.

This little one is precious!  And look at the christening gown!  This is perhaps the most elaborate I’ve ever seen.  Photo was taken by McLeod, from Greenville and Vandalia, Illinois.

Don’t you love the hand of the little one on his/her big sister’s hand?  The little girl has attitude, hand on hip!  A pair of sweethearts!  Photo taken at the Fordtran Studios.  Perhaps a relation to the boy above?

Another sweet little face – and another beautiful gown!  I believe this looks like a little boy – what do you think?

And finally, another brother/sister photo.  What a cute little sailor!  This is Rexford, at 5 and one-half years, and Phillis at 2 years and ten months.  Photo was taken at the Angelus Studio, 67 1/2 N. Broad Street, Norwich, New York.

I hope you’ve enjoyed these photos of another time!  More later!
