Dear Visitor,

When I moved into the house of my great-aunt some time ago, I found the pictures I would like to show you here on my website: They must have been sent to Germany by relatives who migrated to the US, and by their families and descendants. Unfortunately, there were no letters.

I know from our local historian that in the 19th century many people of my hometown Gross-Zimmern, Germany, migrated to the US. At least the older photos I found have information on the backside that they were taken in
- Kansas (Oswego, Coffeyville, and Lyons) and
- Nebraska (Hebron).

That's why I present to you the backside too: there is either the name of the photographer and the town on them, or some names in handwriting. And all the information I have about this people is on these photographs.

So if you have any idea who the people on this site may be and how they might have been related to my great-aunt, Eva Bechtold né Ohl from Gross-Zimmern, I would be grateful if you contated me.

Thank you.

With best regards
Andrea C. Busch
