Don't forget to ask your older relatives if they have any old letters and old photos. The pics often have names and dates, even location of the studio if they're an old studio print. Letters have addresses and return addresses and infrequent letters from cousins and more distant relatives often outline family connections.
usually they're tucked away in a shoebox in a box in the back of a closet or up in the attic. Clues abound if you gently persist in asking after old letters and pics.
