Orphan Photo #120

This cabinet card is so cute.  On the back, it reads, “Sarah to Ann,” but I have no idea what is means or who they are. 

The photographer’s imprint reads: Turley, Albion, Ind.

I wonder who this dapper young gentleman is in this cabinet card.  The photographer is James T. Relf, located in Decorah, Iowa.

Orphan Photo #118

According to the imprint, this photograph was taken by S. Fichtel of Union Hill, New Jersey.  I’m pretty sure it’s Sigmund Fichtel, who was listed in the 1900 census as a photographer, living in Union with his wife Margureth.1
