Smadar Belkind Gerson at Past-Present-Future has added a new post, Photo Detective Study of Produce Row, that includes information about the Morales Banana House in Houston Texas. She did some great detective work and was able to date the photograph of flooding that I included in my post about the Banana House.
Smadar was so kind to include additional information about the Morales produce business in her blog post! And she found video footage and another photo that may offer additional glimpses of the building. I’m still looking them over!
Please hop on over and take a look!
Kathy, I was so happy to see that the other person Smadar referred to in her blog posts was YOU! Isn’t it wonderful, the synergy that happens when we work together to piece those family stories back together?!
Yes! And it all happened because I was reading your blog and she made a comment to suggest how you could identify your picture, and I kept hopping along until I got to her post and discovered we had ancestors on the same street. So really – you brought us together!
Yes, I read Smadar’s post and very much enjoyed it. So exciting that your research and hers have converged on the same street of the same city. What are the chances?
