Photograph - Minna & Marguerite
Does anyone know of a family with a mother/daughter who lived in Thayer County from at least around 1900 - 1910 whose names were some form of Minna and Marguerite?A cousin and I have been trying to identify a mystery photo in the family collection.
Clues are:
The little girl is about 4 to 8 years old in a professional photo taken in 1910.(This photo is dated by the photographer, E.V. King.)
The mother and the husband/father is also in the 1910 photo.
There are no other children in the photo, leading me to believe the girl is an only child...at least at that time.
A second photo of the mother and daughter (no one else in this photo) was taken about the same time but is undated.Names written under this photo are "Minna & Marguerite."It does not specify which is which.Location is said to be the Albrecht home in Deshler, NE, at Christmastime.There is a Christmas tree in the background.This may indicate that this family was probably either related to or very good friends of the Albrecht family.
Other possible families with which this family may be connected are Beisner, Birkholz, Lange, or Ehlers.
