    1. [Cronk] CRONK Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of Cora CRONK which was taken at the Arnold Studio in Olivet, Michigan. The photograph is dated 1 June 1906 with Cora appearing to be in her teens or 20's at the time the photograph was taken. In addition to her name and the date, someone has also written "Levi Cooley" on the back of the photograph as if this is the person to whom the photograph was gifted. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Cora and her family: Cora Almyra GRIFFIN was b. in MI and married Earl Wheeler CRONK (b. about 1883 in MI) about 1905. They had a daughter Charlene L. CRONK b. 22 Mar 1913 in Chester, MI. Census records provide the following information: 1910 census of Bellevue Township, MI: Earl CRONK, age 27, newly married, born MI, parents born NY, a Farmer Corra CRONK, wife, age 23, newly married, no children, born MI, parents born OH/MI Living directly next door to Henry & Jessie CRONK and family 1920 census of Kalamo, MI: Earl W. CRONK, age 37, born MI, parents born MI, a Farmer Cora A. CRONK, wife, age 38, born MI, parents born MI Doma V. CRONK, dau, age 8, born MI Charlene L. CRONK, dau, age 6, born MI Verdan G. CRONK, son, age 4 years + 1 Month, born MI 1930 census of Kalamo, MI: Earle W. CRONK, age 47 Cora A. CRONK, age 43, b. 1887 in MI, parents born OH/MI Dorma V. CRONK, age 18 Charlene L. CRONK, age 17 Verdon G. CRONK, age 15 I am hoping to locate someone from this CRONK Family so that the photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
