Mildred Marie Schlott Holyoke (1900-1977) Canton, Ohio

Find Their Story #4

Here is another photo from the estate sale at 20069 Lichfield, Detroit, MI 48221. It is a delightful child portrait from the Hanna studio in Canton, Ohio (I believe the photographer was Samuel D. Hanna).

Written on the back is: Mildred Marie Schlott Holyoke, Born Aug 22, 1900, daughter of Cora Eda Rindchen S. Wife and Clarence L. Schlott.

She married Harold Holyoke, who died only a few months before her. Here is her obituary from 1977 and their shared gravestone.

It was interesting to note that a different photo of Mildred from the same sitting (though a different pose) was included on her Find a Grave Memorial. I have reached out to the contributor for more information.
