Great-grandmother Gauzner

Great-grandmother Gauzner
This is a picture of my paternal great-grandmother Gauzner. The photo was taken in Odessa in the 1900s in the studio of court photographer V. Chekhovskiy. My great-grandfather on my father's side was named Josef Gauzner. He lived in Zvenigorodka, Podolsk province. In our family album are photos of my great-grandfather, taken in Odessa in the 1900s. This photograph was taken at the same time as the photograph of my great-grandfather. It's a pity but I don't know her first and maiden name. Judging from the photos they must have been wealthy people. They are well dressed; my great-grandmother wears well-combed hair and jewelry.
