Photo of my Great-Grandparents
Relationship:
Im/migrant
This photo shows my great grandparents, George and Bernice Pflum, shortly before they were married. This is a family artifact because very few photos of my great grandparents were taken when they were young. My great grandparents both came from modest farm families. Photography was expensive at the time and considered a luxury. My great grandparents saved up to have this photo taken. They got married a few months after this photo was taken, on December 28, 1934. It was taken at the height of the Great Depression.
Place(s): Connersville, Indiana
Year: 1934
