    I am participating in Amy Johnson Crow’s

    Here is one of my favorite pictures

    The lady with her children is my Great Grandmother, Anna Catharina

    Sevenich nee Steinhaus. The girl directly above her, wearing the white apron

    is my Grandmother, Adelheid Sevenich. The picture was taken in front of

    their house, at Oberstrasse 19, in Heerdt, Germany. 

    I received a copy of this picture about 10 years ago. I was more than

    excited when I received it. A moment in the history of my ancestors about

    1907. I have no idea who took the picture and why, as my Great

    Grandfather, Franz Sevenich, and three more children are absent.

    The last two children were twins and were born in the spring of 1906.

    All children lived to adulthood.
