Flea Market Photo



Hellen Marie Frank and Alice May Frank were the daughters of Jean Paul and Laura Frank. The girls were born in a small town in Wisconsin. Hellen is age 11 in this photography and Alice is 8. The girls grew up in a middle class family and spent their days studying and helping their mom around the house cooking and cleaning. Their father Jean Paul was a hardworking man who spent most of his days at the factory helping cut and sort metal. His working conditions were hard and he often came home agrivated. Jean Paul and Laura worked hard to give the girls nice things and keep the house up. 
One cloudy morning, Laura had just finished reviewing school words with the two girls and decided to head to the store to pick up dinner to be prepared before Jean Paul got home. On this particular day the air felt stiff and cold. No birds flocked, no dogs barked, and no roosters crowed. It was if the world did not wake up that morning. When the girls returned to the house to unpack their groceries, they found something very stomach wrenching. Their father seemed very enraged and began acting very out of sorts. All you should know is that the family was never found again. To this day, this photo is the last to have been taken of the girls.
