Interesting photos but I do not recognize any one.
I have a couple of photos done by A. M. Estrella also. I have wondered what ever happened to all the old glass plate negatives. I would guess they were washed for their silver content during the war.

They are probably no relation of mine though they look similar to some, haha. I have ancestors who also had photographs taken at A M Estrella studio. Could you please give more information such as where you found these and if there is anything written on the backs. Also, please try to make copies or scans of them. Old family photographs are so rare and once they are gone, they are gone forever. I think you can have scans and copies made at places like CVS if you don't own a scanner. A.M. Estrella was the photographer of the Portuguese immigrants in the Fall River area circa 1900-1930. He had a studio on Bay Street and was orininally from Vila Franca (I think). He took a wedding photo of my grandparents in 1910. John Miranda Raposo -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
