August 1905, Age 2 years and 2 months
Indianapolis, Indiana
This photo was located today in a booth at the Burlington Kentucky Antique Show at the Boone County Fairgrounds.
There was excellent identification on the back of the photo, and an unusual enough name that I felt I should surely be able to find a living relative.
She is the daughter of Charles William Kalfus (1861-1917) and Emma Delia Moore (1863-1946).
The family is found (albeit mispelled) on the 1910 Federal Census, Wayne Township, Indiana, 403 Berwick Street.
