Please email: HERE I have 2 pictures that I would like to identify. I believe they were taken in Oconto County, Wisconsin. I received them from the Sieckman/Pederson/Olson families of the Maple Valley, Oconto County, Wisconsin area. Please see the above pictures. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Deborah Sieckman |
I found the photo in the museum in Escanaba, quite by accident. The man who is on your left hand side in the front of the picture, with the hat on. I am almost positive he is a Payette ? or Boisvert?? This man is identical to my father ... so much so, it is scary, but I know it is not my father because of the time. I would like to know who this is and the time line. My great grandfather Felix Payette was a lumberjack and he had many sons, so it could be one of them? or my great grandmother was Clara Boisvert? could it be a Boisvert? contributed by: Denise Fay |
