Florence LaDue (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• adonis_sepquin said:

  World Champion Trick and Fancy Roper, rancher. Born 1883, died 1951.

• Richard Norton said:

  I started an entry for her in Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_LaDue

• Kristi (LOC P&P) said:

  adonis_sepquin and Richard Arthur Norton, Thanks for the additional information! We'll update the record with more details. It does appear her 'stage name' was actually Flores LaDue, rather than Florence. She is named as Flores in both the Cowgirl Hall of Fame and in this article on the Calgary Stampede used in the Canadian Encyclopedia, so we'll note that as well.

  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called ONLY THE COOLEST AND FAMOUS BIG TRUCKS, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

First Annual Convention of Western Aviators

from Provincial Archives of Alberta

• Numerous Secretary said:

  Interesting, I count six in the back row and seven up front but the photograph names five and six.

• Provincial Archives of Alberta said:

  Those kinds of over-looked information gaps are all too common in archival photographs, unfortunately. There are likely other records that one could consult to perhaps apply some names to the unidentified faces, though.

• Dean Z said:

  As a note, the Glenbow Archives has the same image, to the right of Dickens is listed as "Lieutenant H.H. Fitzsimmons, Lethbridge, Alberta. Glenbow CU178429 (digitalcollections.ucalgary.ca/asset-management/2R3BF1OBT0IO)

• Provincial Archives of Alberta said:

  Thanks for that!
