Last September, I posted a photo of an unknown woman standing proudly beside a 1929 Buick Marquette 37x. She has been identified as Mary Della Durling Mariencheck, my great-grandmother. In this case, we didn't use advanced photo manipulation or group deductive reasoning to sniff out her identity. It was simply a matter of exposure. Awesomely, someone saw the mystery picture here on the blog and said, "Hey! That's Nanny!" And that was it: mystery solved!
From there, it was simply a matter of finding a comparative photo of her from roughly the same time. The photo at right is one of only 5 pictures I have of Mary. |
