This is a fun shot with the names hand-written on the side, so folks are identified, if you know them! I do know that Bill Hain (my great grandfather) is the gentleman squatting with the white hat in the lower right. I also know that Charlie Kimmerle is the gentleman sitting on the ground with the dark vest showing only his right side of his face, because of a birthmark/growth on the other side (so I've been told). Ed King (of the famous Wm King & Son Organ Manufacturers) is the white bearded gentleman standing in full suit behind Bill Hain.
People in photo include: Charlie Kimmerle
Charles Kimmerle was probably the one in the family my grandma talked about who had a goiter. Not a birthmark, but overgrowth of the thyroid gland. Charles was her grandfather, and Grover, on the far left, first row, was his son; my great-grandfather. Charles Kimmerle named his son after Grover Cleveland. The handwriting is my grandmother's: Katherine, Grover's daughter. I am Lisa, Katherine's second child, Mary Jo's, daughter.
Hi Lisa. Thanks for checking these photos out. Katherine Kimmerle Follett was one of the main reasons I started researching our family. I didn't recognize her handwriting.

Did you know my grandma, or just come across her research? My brother and I helped many hours by going to libraries with her when we were young and scrolling through the microfilm! : )
By the way, Frances Kimmerle is Grover's second wife. I think she's the one stooping down next to the young girl. These are all names I have heard talked about many times over the years, and have spent time with many of them. I'll check your website to see how we are connected.

Deep love of my children,and grandchildren some I've not met yet. I love to garden preserve the food I've grown. Love to go motorcycle riding, but only on Harleys. Lol I like to walk working with my hands. My mouth can get me into trouble at times because I won't sugar coat things. I call it like I see it, Iell it like I see it. As I've at times been told I haven't a filter. Which can be dangerous;) two things I don't like a liar or a thief. I'm pretty easy going, I can adapt to most things easily. I like to try new things see new places any chance I get. I love deeply from my whole being. I like to cook and try different recipes.I love COUNTRY music from a early age. In But I like rock and other genres also just COUNTRY makes me feel home. The sound of steel guitars the mandolin just the old sounds of country music love to sing along.

I recently lost my most beloved dog whom was like my 4th child:( I will go out of my way to help someone in need or a , rescue a few animals etc.
