Sentimental Sunday: Elizabeth Regina Dienes Massmann, ABT 1891

The note on the back says this is Elizabeth Regina Dienes Massmann (1876-1946), one of my paternal great-grandmothers, in about 1891.



This cabinet card is from Hoffman Studio, located at 20 [now 1219] Clybourn Avenue in Chicago.  According to the Chicago Historical Society's Chicago photographers, 1847 through 1900: as listed in Chicago city directories, photographer Albert J. Hoffman was at this address from at least 1889 to at least 1895.  During this same period, the Dienes family had a hat store at nearby 287 [now 460 W.] Division.
