Now for the gentleman that I met that day - I haven't yet been back to see him (the weather here was quite cold over the weekend and I wasn't feeling up to a trek through the flea market in the cold to see him) so I'll be visiting with him on another weekend, charts and family info in-hand, to see if we can make a connection.
I have yet another treat from him - this one a little baby, named Clara Amealia Bercaw according to the notation on the photo's frame to which it's glued. I've not had any luck finding information on this Clara, although there are census records which contain the name Clara Bercaw, and they're in this general area (MD, VA, WV), I haven't any way to date this photo (with my own knowledge). Anybody out there that might be able to help date her, all guesstimates and ballparks would be a great help. I tried to find photos of old strollers, to attempt to determine what era the stroller might have been from, but no luck for me on that. Sometimes we just have to admit that we have no idea what we're doing and let an "expert" have a look :-)
