Shared Photo: Janneke Maatje Hoste

Question

This pretty little lady deserves to be considered as a Photo of the Week candidate. Though it's not in color, I would guess that her hair ribbon is bright orange, a Dutch custom for school children celebrating the Queen' s birthday. (House of Orange, you know)

I wanted to share this family photo of Janneke Maatje Hoste with the community. Location: Netherlands. Date: 1905.

John, Just found it today and thought it worth sharing. Love her semi-pouty but serious expression.

Thank you for sharing

This is my grandfathers' sister. I don't know much about her, she didn't get older than 13 years.

I just uploaded the complete family photo, the little boy is my grandfather.

She is adorable. So sorry to read that she didn't make it. We have so many children in our ancestry that also died young. I do love the family photo link. Thanks for sharing.
