I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Helen STEGER which was taken at the Harry Ford Studio in Lyndon, Kansas. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Helen likely about 2-3 years old at the time. I am hoping to locate someone from Helen's family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to its rightful place with family. If you are a member of Helen's family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
