Hi, I'm an admin for a group called folk costumes, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Her name is Theano Sotriou Pappasoteriou, Greek spelling "Θεανώ Παπασωτηρίου". She arrived at Ellis Island from Salamis, Salamína Island, Greece on 3 Jun 1909 with the youngest 4 of her 7 children. She was 47 in this photo. Her husband "Sam" Soterios Papasoteriou was waiting for her in California, where their family has prospered ever since. You can find more about this Greek woman in Louis Takács book "LET ME GET THERE: Visualizing Immigrants, Transnational Migrants & U.S. Citizens Abroad, 1914-1925" published in 2021.

She's not wearing an apron but a "bunad", it's a traditional Norwegian dress
torw said:
The headgear indicates she is married, but she appears to be quite young.
Twaize said:
Not too young for marriage around 1890 to 1900, mind you
Kurt Bareksten said:
She is not married. She has no ring on her right hand ringfinger. (:-) But she seems to be happy anyway.
