I have some beautiful old photographs.
They might be relatives of mine ...
I know that the couple are named Backman
and the card was taken in Chicago.
I would like to know more ...

On this card we see a girl who is sitting, her name is Edit Backman.
Her sister Maria sent it to Sweden.
I do not know the name of the girl standing next to.
Could these be related to the couple ..?

... Is this the same girl as on the card abowe, Edit Backman ...?

I found my ancestors Andrew and Jennie Chilberg here.
I knew that they lived here and was looking for them.
