In my grandma's photo album, I found pictures of Johanna Gadus, my great-grandma Julia (Gadus) Biacovsky's sister. I remember my grandma talking about her, but hadn't seen a photo of her in ages.
Unfortunately, I don't know much about her. Perhaps someone else in the family does. Her wedding photo is very cool. I love that giant flowing bouquet -- it looks like it might weigh a ton -- and whatever that is wrapped around her body. It looks like some sort of garland. The boutonniere on her husband's jacket has a huge bow and his ring is on his right hand clutching gloves.
In the next picture, we see her with three children. At least two of them are girls, but I'm not sure about the baby. At that time, little boys often wore dress-like clothing, too. The children are holding some kin of flowers. The family looks a little stern, but it might be from sitting there for so long.
I'm not sure if Johanna stayed in Slovakia or came to the US. I'm guessing that she stayed there and spent her life there. If anyone knows, please send me an e-mail or post a comment.
