NOTES

Since there is no photographer or location printed on this photograph there is no way to be absolutely positive that this is the person listed

to above but this Charles Siebel married a Ratzlaff and I purchased a couple Ratzlaff photograph along with this one which leads me
to believe it is him. Also his daughter Clara married a Freese of which I also purchased a family photograph of with this one.

Note from FindAGrave.com: Charles came to America with his mother in 1873. At that time, according to ship manifests, he was traveling

with his mother and two other children. He was carrying his father's last name of Stromyer. It is unclear if he was officially adopted or just
assume the last name of his mother's second husband, Fred Siebel.
