Sylvia



Sylvia was my mother in law's first cousin.
She was a pretty young thing with long black curls.



This picture was taken around 1909 by her Uncle Fred, a professional photographer and my mother in law's father (my husband's grandfather)... Cick on images for closer look!



The little child's fan with the peacock feathers and sweet silk tassel belonged to Sylvia and came in a pink silk case.
My mother in law says pretty little Sylvia grew up to be a beautiful woman.
She lived to be 95 years old and had three husbands!

I guess not all at once....
Hope your evening is relaxing and your Friday brings a good start to the weekend!
