William Powell b 1861 Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin and wife Amanda Jane Walters Powell born 1868, Douglas County, Minnesota with their two sons Walter Powell b 1891 and Melvin Powell b 1895 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota

This photo was found among my family's old photos, identified as great-grandpa Powell family on a note stuck to the back. The photo was analyzed and given an approximate date of 1900 based on clothing styles.

The man in front looks similar to William Powell who was born in Fond du Lac Co., Wisconsin in 1861 and died in Sioux Falls, SD in 1930. William's father Jeremiah Powell was born in New York, moved to Fond du Lac Co., Wisconsin and later removed to Brookings Co., SD where he died in 1886. However, the people in the picture are not familiar to my family. Does anyone know the identity of this family? This might be a Muchow family photo based on similarities to a Muchow photo I saw at a Minnehaha Co. SD Genealogical Society web site.

Sioux Falls, South Dakota postal workers around 1900. Walter Powell might be on a bicycle at the far right.

The people in the photo have not been identified. It was in possession of my grandfather, Walter Powell

This is the 1888 wedding photo of William Powell (b 1861, Fond du Lac Co., Wisconsin to Jeremiah and Sarah Powell) to Amanda Jane Walters (b 1868, Douglas Co., Minnesota to John Franklin and Ellen Walters)
