National Gallery Nights

 

Photo by Patrick Jones. National Gallery, 13 Oct 2022.

Last night we enjoyed a date night in DC and the National Gallery Night Trick or Treat themed event. It was great to get out for the evening and see the National Gallery of Art East Wing, people in costumes, the DJ, and performers. It felt like pre-COVID times, and was nice to take in an adult night out in the city. We don't do that in DC often enough. 

156 Years Ago Today

 

Maria Jesus Vasquez, about 1895.

My 2nd-great-grandmother, Maria Jesus Vasquez, was born on 1 October 1866 in Pitiquito, Sonora, Mexico. The photo above is likely from around 1895, with her husband Vicente Campuzano (previously shared in August 2015) and two children (probably Maria Jesus Campuzano and Vicente Campuzano Jr.). The photo was colorized using with Ancestry's photo technology.
