| These are all photographs of Meta Harfst Heinsohn. She is almost always pictured with her hair wrapped with a bow. If you look closely, you'll notice she's also wearing the same necklace in almost every photo. The other two women in the bottom left photo are tentatively identified as her daughter, Gerhardine Kasten, and her daughter-in-law, Elise Weishuhn Heinsohn. She lived with her son Otto's family. His two older children, Herbert and Isabel, are pictured with her in the second photo from left. |
