Elva Silverberg
I am looking for a link to my grandmother's history.Her name was Annetta DeVries , married Cloutier and originally from New Haven, CT, born in 1879.I have recently received a number of photographs that had been hers and in some that were identified there were a number of Silverbergs.One is Elva and another Alice.My grandmother was orphaned and at about age 12 was taken in by a family as domestic help and became quite close to them.She related one of the daughters as named "Elva".I suspect that the Elva in the photos with the last name of Silverberg may have been a married name since there is also several of a young girl named Alice Silverberg.I'm trying all avenues to find out who the family may have been who took her in during that time.Of course 1890 census records are missing so I can not look for those.I'm hoping someone might have a link.
