This area looks like the California Central Valley or the San Jose, CA area near the mountains, before all the development, when much of that area was orchards. And it’s a beautiful photo, very artistic, of little Franica, who looks to be about two years old, in her polka dot dress and knit cap. The given name Franica is not a common one, and in searching the 1920 Federal Census’ in the U.S. there are only about twenty entries that could possibly fit for someone born 1915 – 1918, none coming up in California; of course, it could well have been taken in some other state or even country. But in any case, a pretty name for a pretty girl.

Old photo dated 1918.
