Donovan Family Photo - About 1911

Photo Studio - Norway, Michigan

This is a Donovan family photo from around 1911. I’m judging that by the appearance of my mom, Alice, 2nd from left in front row. She was born in 1908, and I’m guessing she’s 3 here. So, going L to R in back row, we have Chester, Susan, Bill, and Raymond. In front are Clarence (Corky), Alice, Matilda Donovan, baby Ora, Milton, Timothy Donovan, Irene, & Irving (seated). We’re fortunate to have gotten some quality pictures from these families. We have some other old photos, and some newer ones, that’ll eventually be posted on a photo gallery page. Hope this helps you peg some names and faces. As time goes by, we'll try to get a gallery of some other photos to help you visualize some people you've seen listed on this site, and may have heard about through the years. All of the brothers and sisters have passed away, with Alice being the last (2001). We hope that each family will keep pictures, names, places, and things that will mean something to future generations. It's hard to reconstruct the past after people have died, places have changed, and things have become lost. It's important to take care and preserve history. Make notes about people, places, and things. Take pictures and label 'em. Your heirs will truly appreciate it! You can contact me, Ken Anderson, to provide or request further info.
