 WOMEN FROM OLD TINTYPES
My uncle Bob found some old tintype pictures of women from about 1890.  

The woman on the right is Maria Backlund, the one on the left is possibly a niece who has arrived in good health from Sweden.  Perhaps it is Emily Soderquist?


A group of women with bouquets.   They are dressed for a wedding?
The lady on the from Left is Maria Backlund.  The one in the middle Anna Caroline Carlson who married Lars Magnus Backlund (in US: Rev. Lewis M. Backlund) married 4 Oct 1890, Arapahoe County, Colorado.
Here is a picture of them at the time of their marriage:        Anna was born in                            
Fa:rnebo, Filipstad, Värmland, Sweden in 1869.
