Timothy Holmes – Penny Farthing Bicycle

Timothy Holmes with his penny-farthing bicycle at Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan, USA. Tim and his group demonstrate early cycling at many parades and events. There are no brakes and or other safety features on these bicycles. Our grandmothers, Margaret Blumenstiel Holmes and Dorothy Blumenstiel Jarrell, were sisters and he is my second cousin. #falknerjarrell #blumenstielgenealogy #blumenstiel #familyhistory #genealogy #familyphotos #oldphotos #oldphoto #detroit #detroithistory #michigan #michiganhistory #familyhistory #familyhistorian #dearborn #dearbornmi #greenfieldvillage #thehenryford #bicycle #pennyfarthing #pennyfarthings #bigwheel #cycling #cyclinghistory #cyclist #cyclists #holmes #jarrell #history #historicalreenactment
