Occasion: Unknown.Location: Chicago, Illinois
Photographer: Unknown.
Relationship to me: Maternal Grand Aunt.
I have very little information regarding this photograph. Once my mother retired, she went through the boxes of photographs and created historical photo albums. She made one for myself and one for my brother.
Alma Waswo Wascher was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1883. She married Ernest Wascher on June 7, 1905, and they had two children Ernest Jr. born in 1908 and Elfriede born in 1909. Alma passed away on January 14, 1968 and is buried in the Beverly Cemetery in Chicago, Illinois.
Judith's father was Ernest Wascher Jr. She wrote the following about the family: William Moeller(husband of Minnie Waswo) was the uncle of Ernest Wascher Sr. William Moeller was the brother of Anna Elizabeth Moeller who married a Wascher. William and Ernest Sr. were not only uncle and nephew, but also brothers-in-law as they married sisters (Minnie and Alma). Their children, therefore, were related on both their mothers' side and their fathers' side of the family.
I am in contact with Judith, and perhaps she will be able to provide additional information.
