from<br>circa 1870 to 1940. it isn't a complete set and I don't know if it's<br>all the same family, though it appears to be. <br><br> purchased in So. Oregon but not sure if it has any connection to<br>Oregon <br><br> places and names include; <br><br> Solothurn-of a possibly mixed/AmerIndian/Scottish woman in western<br>dress-one as a young woman, one as an old woman, wearing the same<br>dress, an outer half skirt added later. could be different women, but<br>I think they're the same <br><br> Louisville, Kentucky-an older man with a beard in dress jacket and<br>vest, <br><br> Louisville, Kentucky-a young girl with a dimple in her chin wearing<br>what appears to me to be a white strolling dress. definitely not a<br>frock, and too old for her. <br><br> unmarked, a young man, early 20's? in a cordoroy jacket and plaid<br>wide tie
<br><br> St. Charles, MO, a youngish bearded man, 24-36 years of age, I'd<br>guess. dark hair, light eyes <br><br> a more recent photo, 2 women holding a large tin bucket with 2<br>children in the bucket, on the back it says "This is myself and Mrs.<br>Fetting, the people that lived upstairs". <br><br> a more recent photo, old man with a toddler on his lap, on the back<br>"Edward Probst and granddaughter Mabel 1920" <br><br> baby in a stroller "Mabel Wenger at the age of 8 months 1919" <br><br> a photo of a young woman and a 4-5 year old daughter. on the back in<br>ink, somthing in gothic German. as best as I can read it; Fur<br>_ifusnper Lirbuli. oomlats over the u in Fur and the first i? in<br>Lirbuli. the _ may be a D. looks like our n, but big, the f in<br>_ifusnper is assumed, it looks like the second s in pre-1870<br>writting, with large loops above and below
the writing line. the e<br>towards the end of _ifusnper looks like the early English c. so I<br>could have miss-read it. <br><br> a baby announcement was tucked behind a photo! J. M. Simonitsch, Jr.<br>is the baby's name. the person could still be alive so I will leave<br>the date and time and weight out of this note. <br><br> candid picture of man and wife, outdoors photo made to appear in<br>doors. cake on table & pillows at their feet. no name but "37th<br>wedding anniversary, Sep 20, 1923" <br><br> picture of a house from abt 1910, "The Molly Ranch Kitsop County W?<br>m? is it Wisconsin? <br><br> woman in glasses and circa 1910-1920 white dress in front<br>of...hybiscus? <br><br> woman w/ bouquet of flowers, says she received them graduation<br>night. <br><br> woman holding large card, says it's her diploma
<br><br> guy with a dog-Heinie? and Tricksie-Tricksie is the dog <br><br> girl with dog-Josephine and...the dog's name is now racist, though<br>at the time the photo was taken it was considered perfectly ok. I<br>refuse to make it public as I find it offensive. we are all one. <br><br> they had a goat named "Nanny" <br><br> picture of a woman standing in front of a house "Ma" <br><br> man, "Henry". he looks a lot like Heinie <br><br> man "Heinie" <br><br> woman-mentions Sun-kist-vale <br><br> older photo, thin paper, woman. too much light from the side, washed<br>out, 2 copies of this photo, no info. <br><br> a few more photos, house, kids in tub, etc. only one has any info.; <br><br> "Linns & Norbert Fetting in the tub" <br><br> I wonder if the girdle is
cultural. all the women are wearing the<br>same type, white scallopy catches with a cord laced back and forth,<br>the way shoes lace. <br><br> from Ancestry I find Jacob M. and Margurete Simonitsch with their<br>children, Jacob M., Jr., and 3 other children. Moorehead, Minnesota <br><br> I find Wenger, Probst and Fetting living near one another in Alma,<br>Wisconsin. <br><br> I'm busier than a one armed paper hanger with a cold at the moment<br>(no, I don't have a cold, but it does paint a picture) but will scan<br>these photos some time later this month and notify the list of it.<br>just hope I can get them onto deadfred when I do, I've always had<br>difficulties-any other free photo posting sites anyone know of? <br><br> as far as I can tell the Fettings are neighbors and friends, not<br>related. <br><br> ok, I've spent twice the time expected on this, must rush
off in 20<br>direction....
