This is a beautiful 1878 photo of a much loved baby who became dentist Dr. Frank Kenna. He moved from Carthage NY to Norfolk County, Quincy Massachusetts. His father was born in Ireland. There is a corner chip, as seen in photo, does not affect his image in any way. He may be known as Franklin Kenna in census records. A wonderful early Kenna and Woolworth family piece.
Size 2.5 x 4 inches Note: Hello from ~debra. I have spent years collecting over 10,000 ID’d lost family photos & paper from US flea markets & antique shops. I do the best gen research I can, but am always open to corrections. This is an original antique item, not a reprint. A new high quality rigid sleeve is included for extra protection, especially during shipping. You may buy a piece alone, or large intimate 300 dpi scans of the front and back sent immediately via email, or both. Please search carefully, as they are often found together and many may be related. I also invite you to join me at Ancestorville Genealogy on facebook. Thank you, enjoy! ~Debra Clifford (contact info on top bar)
