ALTA L. RAUSCH
Identification on photo: Alta L. Rausch
Photo taken: unknown photographer, circa 1895
Purchased: 2015 Burlington KY Antiques Fair
UPDATE - I have determined this is Alta Irene (Lichti) Rausch of Tuscarawas OH (1874-1948). Here is her memorial at Find-A-Grave: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/188505398
Alta has been sent home to her great-nephew, who has also emailed me the following images of Alta for comparison:
Alta was born in 1875 and married Philip E Rausch in August of 1898. This photo is probably from about 1900 when Alta would have been 25 years old. I am framing the photo and giving it to my dad this Christmas. Alta was his dear aunt.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it, Tom. I know your dad will love it. It is such a lovely portrait.
