I have an old unidentified photograph with a photographer's mark on the back saying: C. GUSTAFSSON FOTOGRAF LINDESBERG. Is there a way I can find out when this photographer was in business? It is a photo of two children, a girl wearing a wide-striped dress, seated with her arm around the shoulder of a boy standing next to her. I don't know of any family in Lindesberg, but I thought that I might be able to guess at who this might be if I could come up with a date range. Thank you for any ideas. Annette

Gustafsson in Lindesberg is not mentioned in "Svenska Fotografers Förteckning anno 1899" or "Svenska Fotografers Förteckning anno 1911". Anbytarforum has one photo by C. Gustafsson in Lindesberg, but no information about the photographer. http://www.genealogi.se/portratt/files/23/Lindesberg_C__Gustafsson.html You might post your photo at Anbytarforum and ask for help. // Bo Johansson
