WESTERVELT, Charlotte E.

CHARLOTTE E. WESTERVELT
(Maiden name not known)

This photograph of Charlotte Westervelt was found at the Stone Soup Antique Gallery in Ballston Spa, NY yesterday, in one of the first two or three booths. It is framed, behind glass, but was too expensive for me to purchase it. So I snapped this image to use on the blog.

I believe the photo was taken circa 1897-1900.

There is this Charlotte E. Westervelt who was born between 1870 and 1875 (based on age given in various Census records).
