Thoughts, stories, questions, and images from my quest to know more about my ancestors.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Here is a picture of my great-grandparents, Frank and Elizabeth (Linneman) Speck. There is no date on the picture, but she is wearing wedding rings (I don't know when they were married) and they look so young compared to the couple of other pictures I have of them. This was probably taken in Monessen, PA. Their daughter Agnes was born in 1915, so maybe this was taken a year or two before? Elizabeth was 19 when Agnes was born and Frank was 28 and they look to be about that age or younger. What do you think based on their clothing and how old they look??

I'm pretty sure I always heard that Mem was 17 when she got married. The fact that Agnes and Frank are not in the picture could mean that it's before kids. Of course, it could just be a husband/wife portrait.
