I’ve recovered an old photograph of Frank STANTON which was taken at the Clement Studio in Marshalltown, IA. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870’s or 1880’s with Frank appearing to be about 6-7 years old at the time. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information: Frank STANTON was b. 29 Aug 1875 in Carlton Township, Iowa to parents John STANTON and Julia A. ROKES (1854-1876) and married Mabel or Mable Bessie FITZGERALD (1880-1957) on 30 Apr 1903 in Tama, IA and they had a daughter, Helen Marjorie STANTON (1905-1986) and a son, Richard “Dick” Kenneth STANTON (1913-1999). Frank died 15 Feb 1950 in Moscow, ID and is buried in the Moscow Cemetery in Moscow, ID. I am hoping to return the photograph to family and would appreciate you contacting if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be. Thanks, Shelley

I've recovered an old photograph of Howard Curtis SHEPARD and Alyce Mae SHEPARD which was taken by the Central Post Card Co. in Waterloo, IA on 11 Jun 1913. Howard is identified as 8 months old at the time the photograph was taken, and Alyce is 2 years and 4 months old at the time. The photograph was sent to Gordon SEWELL in Waverly, IA. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the children and their family: Howard Curtis SHEPARD was b. 11 Oct 1912 in Janesville, IA to Howard Simeon SHEPARD (1885-1945) and Anna Mae SEWELL (1885-1971). Howard had four siblings, Delbert “Dell” Winfield SHEPARD (1906-1969); Alice Mae SHEPARD RANDALL (1911-1990); and Bonnie Y. SHEPARD (1915-1916); and Betty J. SHEPARD STRUBLE (1923-1993). Howard married twice, first to Margaret Violet Helen HANSEN (1917-1999) on 16 Feb 1936 in Waterloo, IA and they had a daughter Martha or Marsha Jane SHEPARD FALZBOT (1936-1996) and one other daughter. His second wife was Elizabeth “Betty” L. VIVONE (1912-1998). Howard died 25 Apr 1996 in Marshalltown, IA and is buried in the Glendale Cemetery in Des Moines, IA. Alice Mae SHEPARD was b. 13 Feb 1911 in Janesville, IA to the same parents and married Glen Alexander MARSH (1911-1996) on 10 Dec 1931 in Waterloo, IA and they had a son, Carlyle Curtis MARSH (1933-2000) and they later divorced. Then on 4 Apr 1964 she married Ralph Alfred RANDALL (1895-1972) in Seattle, WA. Alice died in Auburn, WA on 28 Feb 1990 and is buried in the Mountain View Cemetery in Auburn, WA. Her obituary lists her surviving family members including a son who is unnamed and living in Auburn, WA; a brother in Des Moines, IA; and a sister in Clarksville, IN. I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who may be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
