What can you with those old snapshots in a box, taking up space? You may have your family story in that old box. I started scanning old family pictures for a book for my grand-niece's bat mitzvah a few years ago. Now I have a great resource for the Gerstein family history.
Avrom and Rose (Karbovsky) Krause were married in Poland in 1903. They immigrated to Chicago, where they started a family. They moved to Peoria, Illinois for about 10 years, and back to Chicago about 1926. This is snapshot story of their daughter, Lillian Krause Gerstein and her family.
