German writing appears to mean children of Veronica & Andrew Mitzel – also another writing appears to have been added later –Joe Mitzel Marie. Mrs. Ray Kramer of Strasburg said she has this same picture and the baby on the chair is Rose Mitzel Reis. I gave her my address and asked her to look up this picture and send me the rest of the identities but so far I haven’t heard anything.

I believe this may possibly be Mary (Volk) Voller [Mrs. Sebastian Voller]

According to Lillian Selzler of Strasburg this is a Wolf family. The young woman in the middle back is a Mary or Marie Wolf who married John Klein Sr (a former postmaster at Strasburg). John Klein Sr had married and they had a son and John went to serve in WWI. When he returned, his wife had died and he remarried Mary or Marie Wolf. John Klein Jr was a drummer in Lawrence Welk’s band.
