Shared Photo: Daniel Zeronda

Question

[Feel free to edit the following, add a story or explanation, etc. Remove this comment before posting.]

I wanted to share this family photo of Daniel Zeronda with the community. Location: Springfield, Massachusetts. Date: 1940.

Click here for the image details page or here for the full-sized version (1622 x 1204). Daniel Zeronda born in Russia and migrated in 1903. My mom said that family back in the day called him the Mad Russian.. He was, from what I learned was a Junkman... among other things as well. Daniel passed in 1946. A year before my mom was born so she never got to meet him... Looks like an interesting fellow.... and that is one Big Horse... not to mention, He had the horse in Springfield, Massachusetts... (The City) ...... For the most Part, I can't find to much else out about relatives before him.. ? I'm not even sure where in Russia he came from... His brother had a military reg. Card that said Moscow, Russia.. But other then that I dont want to assume to much ....

Really wish I had a better camera... My Mother keeps a bunch of these old photo's in plastic bags in a Cedar chest. The actual photo is so much cooler looking. In this pic from my tablet it is now where as clear as it really is... I do particularly love the real photo.. It seems more like art then a relative tho... He was my Great grandfather... the guy not the horse... lol

Anthony .. A good quality printer scanner will copy an image with exceptional results and allow you to print out photos.  I would recommend tiff file formats but high definition jpeg files would work.
