Tintype photo of my 2x great-grandfather (left), Joseph J. Schermack, Sr. (1844-1915) and unidentified man. A tailor by trade, he was Born in Heimbach, Neuwied, Prussia and immigrated to the USA in 1857. The photo is not in good condition, but I treasure every image I have of 19th century ancestors. #falknerjarrell #schermackgenealogy #schermack #freeportillinois #illinois #familyhistory #genealogy #familyphotos #oldphoto #oldphotos #illinoishistory #grandfather #greatgrandfather #greatgreatgrandfather #1900s #antiquephoto #bowlerhat #freeportil #freeportillinois #pa #19thcentury #tintype #tintypes #immigrants #immigrant #19thcenturyphotos #19thcenturyphotography #prussia #heimbach #neuwied
