On their caps are the letters "BCB" Buchanan City Band?

If Charles was 18 or 19 at the time of these photos then the photos would of been taken in 1904 or 1905. Charles passed away in 1950 in Jackson, Michigan.

	Bridgman, Michigan circa 1903 group photo, probably confirmation photo. From the family files of Suzanne (Sheldon) Levy: Fairfax, Virginia ---- This photo includes my grandmother, Anna Gitersonke Sheldon. She is the second from left in the middle row. According to the back of the photo, one of the other girls is Alvina Gast, but I'm not sure which one she is. Anna was born in October, 1890 so I suspect the photo was taken around 1903. Alvina Gast, born Reck, was the wife of Edward Gast, Anna's half brother. She was born in December 1890. Best guess is that this is a confirmation photo, probably from Immanuel Lutheran Church in Bridgman. If not, it could be a graduation photo. Grandma was born and raised in Bridgman and later worked at the Warren Featherbone factory in Three Oaks, where she met my grandfather, Frank Chatterson Sheldon. Two of her sisters, Minnie G. Drier and Elizabeth G. Stanage, also settled in Three Oaks.
