Are the photos you used available in a online archive? If so I'd be interested in knowing how to access it; to look for other "Fricker" photos. I have the family tree listing my grandfather's brother and sisters but no photos to go with those names, so finding photos would be amazing. Appreciate your efforts writing about history.
