<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TBeezley1, post: 627841, member: 10852&quot;]The photo of the line of people sitting along the concrete retaining wall features (front to back) Edna Hann and Arthur Thiel (Uncle Arthur was Bertha&#039;s brother and Edna became Arthur&#039;s wife), Wanda Thiel, Bertha Thiel, and several others unknown.&nbsp; One of Edna and Arthur&#039;s daughter&#039;s, Virginia, sent me these comments about that photo and location.&nbsp; BTW &quot;Kinderheim&quot; is German and mean&#039;s children&#039;s home.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Virginia writes, &quot;Hi Todd, Wow…what an incredible reminder of long ago when at the end of every school year children from St. Paul’s school and our Church members would go out to Addison, Illinois for a grand end of the year picnic.</p><p><br /></p><p>It usually took place in June.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was held at the Children’s Home which had spacious grounds.</p><p><br /></p><p>I’m assuming that when this was taken Grandpa Hann was principal of the school.&nbsp; It also looks like Dad was possibly dating Mom at the time.&nbsp; Everyone looks carefree and happy to be together.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>So many have been blessed through the discovery, sharing, and repatriation of this album.&nbsp; Thanks again, Bluumz[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
