A very thoughtful lady (Peggy) from Michigan sent in this photograph on February 2nd. She had found it in an old photo album. She sent it on, hoping that someone from Mt. Pleasant would recognize this person's photo or the name.
Caroline Lovegreen was born in 1833 in Sweden and died in 1870 in Mt. Pleasant. She was the wife of Olaf Lovegreen who was also born in Sweden in the year 1820. He died sometime between 1880 and 1900.

Thanks so much for posting this. The lady is my great grandmother, and her name was very long! She was Carolina Jakobina Wilhelmina Okander (or Ockander) Lofgren or Lovegreen as it was sometimes spelled. Anyway I am so thankful to the lady in Michigan for forwarding. I wonder if she sent a picture of Oluf? Oluf and Carolina came from the fabulous island of Gotland in the Baltic, which is noted on their stone in the Mt. Pleasant cemetery.
