I'm delighted to say that the photograph of my grandmother, Frieda Hann Loe, at work in a Chicago sweatshop c. 1912 has been selected as one of 12 winners in the Illinois State Genealogical Society's Ancestor Photo Contest.
Visit http://www.ilgensoc.org/ to see the other winners.

I think that is extremely cool on so many levels including being a genealogist and having my roots in Illinois!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Teresa. I'm so happy that she made it onto the website.
