We have had this little mystery on our hands for a little while now. We found these little ones in a box of family pictures, and they weren't identified. The picture was found with pictures of Gladys Parker Tilton and Maggie Purkiser Parker. We believe them to be Parkers, possibly from the Purkiser or Potrafke side. Maggie died in 1941, which may or may not be helpful. Pictures kept in a box, bag, or book are often unrelated in time, but they are usually related in affection. Maggie and Gladys were both regarded with affection by the picture holder.
Also, if it is your picture, or that of someone you know, and you’d rather it not be displayed, let me know. I’ll take it down here, and it can remain anonymous on Facebook. I can take it down there where I have posted it also. We have no wish to claim anything, just acknowledge kinship. We're just trying to identify and sort out the “People Who have been Lost” in the Family Archives.
Until then, I have posted this picture at various locations, such as the My Parker Heritage website. No answers there, so far, but had to ask. (I want to know!)
Maybe a Potrafke (Portrafke) or a Tilton might have an idea. If so, let us know, and we'll try to check it out. I have two sisters who are awesome researchers.
Until then, we will wait and wonder, as we have done these many months since the discovery.
