We have not yet found many images from the 1900s, like the 19th century. We do have one undated portrait which looks rather like the 1900s. Interestingly he does not wear a formal black suit, but some other medium color. He wears a non-descript knee pants suit worn with black long stockings. It is not a suit that seems to have been purchased only for First Communnion. The boy does wear a rather formal wing collar shirt and white tie. Notice the hast. It looks like it my be a fedora. The boy looks to be about 9 years old. While the portait is unidentified. The boy is associated with a family group. He is presumably the father.
