Katherine Fitzsimmons, b.1889, dau of Wm/Agnes, of Kane Co./Kendall Co., IL
I have two original Cabinet Card photographs which I’d like to get back to descendants or family members. Photo of Katherine “Kathryn Gabel” was taken in Oakland, CA and she looks about age 30. Photo of her daughter “Grace Gabel”, taken in Aurora (Kane) IL shows Grace with her brother “Roy Gabel.” Roy is about 9 and Grace is about 12.
Katherine was dau of William and Agnes Fitzsimmons, found in 1910 in Kendall Co., IL. Katherine and husband Roy Gabel were in the 1920 and 1930 Lisbon (Kendall Co.) IL censuses. WWI Draft Reg. for “Roy Lew” Gabel shows birth Kendall Co. and 1900 census shows Dec 1885. Katherine was born 19 Mar 1889 Kane Co., IL, and her parents in Scotland. Katherine died 30 Oct 1962 Minooka, IL and husband Roy L. Gabel died 4 Jul 1939.
Grace L. Gabel is with her parents Louis (Lewis) J. and Gratie E. Gabel and brother Roy in 1900 Kendall Co., IL census, showing her birth as Sep 1884. Online family tree gives Gratie’s maiden name as Alford. Grace married William Armbruster abt 1910, lived in Kendall Co., IL. Later married (-) Johnson, and in 1930 & 1940 lived in Fresno, CA with husband Edwin Corah.
