Obituary for my great-great-grandmother Frances Jane Link
The obit incorrectly lists one of Frances's children as "William Henry McMaken." The correct name is Henry William McMaken, my great-grandfather.
Jose Galindo, El Paso, 1913
My great-grandfather Jose Galindo, far left, standing. He's pictured with other railroad workers. I'm told he worked for the railroad as an auditor or book keeper. The photo is from 1913 in or near El Paso, Texas.
The Galindos were a middle-class family that had emigrated from Mexico only a few years earlier. Download for full size.

Business Card
Jesse Galindo's business card:
It seems he was an American rep. for Cervecería Cuauhtémoc-Moctezuma based in Monterrey, Nuevo León, México, producing the Dos Equis, Sol, Bohemia, Superior, Carta Blanca, Noche Buena, Indio, Casta and Tecate brands among others.
Julia Calderon de Nunez (c.1865-1947)
I still don't have a birth date for my great-grandmother Julia Calderon, but I did find a funeral card, and her death date is December 18, 1947.
