photo found in antique shop in Oregon. Not my family line.
Back of photo is post card addressed to Mrs.P.J. Church, Carrall, Neb. Written is a note by Rose Weis to Aunt Mabel. Card is postal stamped Spencer, Iowa - looks possibly like 1913.
After a little research, I believe this may be Rose and Charles, children of W. Niklos and R. Mary Weis of Douglas, Mitchell, Iowa per 1910 census.
Will give original photo/card to family researcher upon request.
