I previously posted this, in 2004, however I came upon some more information and I'd really like to find family to return this to. The original information is below.

I rescued an old wedding photo, from the very early
1900s. Written on the back is Maftey Procechen Canada
1932,Daughter's Marriage. The 32 is scratched out.

Now I only recently came across the name Maftey, both as a given name and as a surname, with Ukrainian roots.
Some people have been kind enough to send information on the name Procechen, as probably being misspelled, and offer these spellings:Procyshen, Procyshyn, and Procyszyns, all Ukrainian.

This photo is unique in the fact that it's of the bride, groom, bridal party and all of the guests, including a band, posing in front of a house, that has what appears to be a very large ditch in front of it. I'm assuming now, that the father of the bride, was named Maftey PROCYSHYN. (Or a variation of the spelling).

I'd like to find someone from the family who would like to have it. Please contact on board, so I can keep a better record of who's contacting me, and send an e-mail to: digginroots@yahoo.com for details.
