Early Detroit

Early snapshot of Detroit, Michigan, USA found in a Blumenstiel Family album. It appears the negative was reversed, as the advertising text is backwards. Based on other photographs in the group, the photo is likely from around 1910. This could be Woodward Avenue, since the family lived nearby. #falknerjarrell #blumenstielgenealogy #blumenstiel #familyhistory #genealogy #familyphotos #oldphotos... Continue Reading →

John William Blumenstiel (1883-1976)
