The two scans below contain the identities of the Toevs siblings and in-laws and their mother, Agatha Suderman Toevs, in the excellent handwriting of my own mother, Florence May Toevs Bartsch.
Her mother, Susie Neuman Toevs, is seated at the far left. All of these
people (excluding Susie, of course, and Grandmother Agatha) were my
mother's uncles and aunts, siblings or siblings-in-law of her own
deceased father, Herman J. Toevs. They
would be my great uncles and aunts, with Susie being my maternal
grandmother, and Agatha Suderman Toevs being my great-grandmother.
Grandma Susie later remarried another Herman - Herman F. Schmidt. I
knew them as Grandpa and Grandma Schmidt. They lived in a nice older
home at 909 South Kansas Ave. in Newton, Kansas. I have included two ID scans in order to retain all the handwriting.
At one time or another, these all lived in or near Aberdeen, Idaho, my
mother's home town. The picture must have been taken by Swanson
Portraits in Pocatello, ID. If I were to guess, the photo would have
been taken some time prior to 1940, almost certainly prior to my
grandmother Susie's having moved from Aberdeen to Newton, KS along with
her daughter Florence, my mother. | | |
