More new old pictures

This one is easy because the name and date are written on the back. Here is the front:













And here is the back:













The photo is of "Mrs. Ewald Sandner and daughter 1921."

"Mrs. Ewald Sandner" was the former Sarah Jane Gardner, born 1890, died 1960. She married Ewald Sandner about 1909 because in the 1910 Census they are enumerated at 5 Main St., Mount Olive, IL, and have been married one year. She might have been pregnant when the Census worker talked to them, because Frederick, their first child, was born in December of that year. 

The daughter has to be Lorraine Gertrude Sandner, who would have been about three in 1921. Ewald and Sarah's first two children were boys: Frederick born 1910 and Raymond born 1912. As far as I can tell there were only four children: Frederick, Raymond, Lorraine pictured above, and finally Doris. 

I found this photo mixed with a bunch of others that came from my great-aunt's house. My great-aunt was not related by blood to the Sandners. But apparently she like them enough to save their photos. 

That's nice.

More photos as I find them. Bis nachste Mal.
