Did I ask you about what if anything you found out about the reunion page and getting search engines to find it readily if they are searching for Blum, Blenkle, Krug, Pruden, Roebke, Snowardt, Spindler, Thramer, etc. I went back and added all the married names so that if there was a chance of a distant relative doing a search for their name, they might find our information. I don’t think we talked about this again, but if so – forgive my short memory. I’ve Googled some of the names, and unless I have Bollwitt, it doesn’t pull anything up. Shirley
Shirley, Let us see if putting names in the blog area, (here), will start the search engines being able to find this. And, if possible we might get john to update this WordPress software. — Duaine

Yesterday an envelope came in the mail from Duaine’s dad, Vic, with some negatives that he found in some remote area of their house. We haven’t spoken with him about them, and what a find! These have to go back to the middle 20′s since Duaine’s mom is the little girl on the horse and she was born in 1922. I’m estimating her age to be between 2 and 3. I plan to post a few each day. I would love to have comments as to who these people are in case we don’t have the caption right.
