Who Is This Man?
This photograph was found in St Louis, Missouri, along with many others depicting members of the Micheau family of Prairie du Rocher and Sparta, Illinois. No living relative among those that I interviewed had anyy idea who he might be. Is this a family member? A friend? How old? Occupation? Just what is his story? When was the picture taken and by whom? Who had it matted? Was the portrait a gift to someone?
There may be someone on the planet who can answer these questions . . .

I really enjoy reading your blog. Thanks for the great posts.
What a wonderful idea on posting the picture. someone will contact you about this.
It looks as if in the bottom right corner there is a name embossed with a line under it. The name looks like it starts with a “D”-maybe Dunkin’s, Dunker’s? and the last name starting with a “T” or “F” maybe even a “J”
