<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 4044482, member: 33"]She was born in 1879 and died in 1913 at age 33, according to the handwriting on the back. She is more likely to be a daughter of Ludwig, since he was age 75 in his picture, possibly taken in the 1920s-1930s. By the way, I found this entry in Find a Grave for a Rev. Ludwig Seibel. Think it's your guy, but haven't done further research. Born in 1856 and died in 1936. He would have been 75 years old in 1931. From what you've found in Familysearch do you think it might be him? He is buried in Sheridan County, North Dakota. <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/20692010/ludwig-seibel" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/20692010/ludwig-seibel" rel="nofollow">https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/20692010/ludwig-seibel</a></p><p><br /></p><p>There is no Katherina listed among his children, but Find A Grave entries are often incomplete.
