Photo of my Great-grandmother, Salome Trinkler Kaelin.
Unknown when or where the photo was taken, but I speculate that it may have been taken in Philadelphia, PA.
Salome (Trinkler) Kaelin was born on April 9, 1870 at Woerth, Bas-Rhin, Alsace, France to Friedrich TRINKLER and Dorothea KLEIDERER. She married Joseph Martin Kaelin on July 17, 1895 in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania United States, and had children Salome Meinrada Dorothea Kaelin, Martin Joseph Kaelin, Dorothea Louisa Kaelin, Mary Kaelin, and Frances Teresa Kaelin. Salome kaelin died at age 35 years old on May 14, 1905 in Philadelphia, and was buried on May 18, 1905 at Northwood Cemetery 1501 Haines St, in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County. Family, friend, or fan, this family history biography is for you to remember Salome (Trinkler).

I am a serious Family Historian. I have been researching my family history for more than 30 years. I research mostly from my computer now and I research almost every day.
I find this is one of the most fascinating hobbies to be involved in. My family hails from:
On my Paternal side: Einsiedeln, Switzerland; Unterleichtersbach, Bavaria, and several other paces in Germany.
On my Maternal side: Honuapo, Kau, on the Big Island of Hawaii, and Wizna, Podlaskie, Poland
