Bella, dau of Frederick Jost- b.Montgomery, AL 1871
I have a wedding photo of BELLA HOWE nee JOST, taken 1895.I know that Bella was the daughter of Frederick (b. Germany) and Frances (b. France) Jost and that she had a sister named Frances b. 1873 also in Montgomery, ALabama.
The photographer's address was listed as being in Washington D.C.
I don't know Bella Jost Howe's husband's first name or where they lived after they were married.
I do see from the censuses that Frederick Jost was deceased by 1900 and Frances, his widow, was living still in Montgomery, Alabama.
The picture was given to a relative of mine who was most likely a girlfriend of Bella. I'd love to give it to someone in the family.
