The above is the photo of Jeanette when she lived, obviously, in Chicago.
You can see she is the same person as in the image I found in the antique photo album.
And here is the photo of Jeanette with her younger brother Cornelius when they were 12 and 9 in 1900.
And at age 15.
Perhaps a wedding portrait with George Harter.
And in 1940 at age 52.
Woohoo, what a wonderful treasury of photos of Jeanette, my 2nd cousin 3x removed.
Interestingly, not only was Jeanette related to my family, but when she was born her parents lived at 1412 S. Burdick St. in Kalamazoo, right near my relatives.
On another note, something has budged in that brick wall of hubby’s grandparents from Ukraine and vicinity. First, Montefiore Cemetery has sent me photos of the headstones. Thank you to Sharon at Branches of our Haimowitz Family Tree for letting me know I could order photos directly! That gave us the Hebrew names of the fathers of both his grandfather and grandmother! And I found a passenger list for his grandfather. A professional is going to help us break down the wall a little further at this point because she can communicate in the proper languages to try to obtain birth records. I’ll keep you posted. Ukraine and Moldova are not easy to work with and nearly impossible for amateurs.

Wow, her face really did not change! I am so glad you were able to share these photographs. And I am looking forward to hearing more about your research into your husband’s family!
It’s so helpful that except for her photo as a child Jeanette looked so much the same. It’s assuring to know it’s the same person. Not so some others I’ve “dealt with” heh. Thanks, Amy. I’m excited to get more info on the Scheshkos!
These photos are amazing! The difference between the photos of her at 12 and 15 is especially striking.
I thought so too. It always amazes me the girls who suddenly spurt from childhood through puberty so quickly. I feel as if my path began earlier and was slower, not so sudden.
I agree with you, though in this case, I wonder how much of it is to do with her style of dress and
Pushed send on accident! Ha!
I know what you mean, though in this case, I wonder how much of it is to do with the change in her style of dress and hairstyle. She’s really gone from being a child to being nearly of marriageable age. Was
this the general expectation at the time? To look the part at 15?
I agree these are great photographs. I hope to hear more good news on your husbands genealogy. Best of luck.
Thank you, Charles! I’m really excited to see what else can be found. When I get enough info I’ll do a post about it!
I’am thrilled you were able to get the gravestone photo’s. And so quickly too 🙂 Would love to see them posted. The photo’s are fantastic, I loved every one of them, especially the possible wedding photo. Wouldn’t it be amazing if the clothing our ancestors had worn survived?
I love the wedding photo. They both look so happy and confident. At 52, she still looked happy and confident. Good Luck with husband’s grandparents. Ukraine can’t be easy. Thank you – Spyro
Wonderful photos and a stunning site – I am so impressed!
Oh, thank you so much. That’s so kind!
