    1. [BOWERS] HAAG - BOWAR or BOWERS Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of Lawrence & Christine HAAG which was taken at the Gramm Studio in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin. This appears to be the couple's wedding photograph with both appearing to be in their 20's or 30's at the time it was taken, likely sometime in the 1880's or 1890's. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding this couple and their family: Christine A. BOWAR was b. 28 Jan 1872 in Primrose, WI to parents Lorenz or Lawrence BOWAR (b. 3 Sept 1828 in Remetschweil, Switzerland) and Sybilla SCHLIMGEN (b. 25 Nov 1832 in Bergheim, Prussia). Lawrence Joseph HAAG was b. 3 Apr 1865 in Perry, WI to parents Johann or John HAAG (b. 15 Nov 1825) and Mary Rosena KAISER or KAYSER (b. 22 May 1829 in Wittenberg, Germany). Lawrence was one of 5 children born to this couple including, John P.; George; Mary; Lawrence; and Magdalene HAAG all born between 1851 and 1868. Christine married Lawrence HAAG on 14 Apr 1891 in Perry, WI and together they had 12 children including, Albert J.; William; Gregory; Joseph Ignatius; Mary Rosena; Lawrence George; Bertha A.; Josephine; Loretta C.; Marcella; Frank F.; and Raymond HAAG, all born between 1892 and 1915 all in Dane Co. WI. Christine died in Perry, WI in 1954 and Lawrence died in 1947 at Perry, WI. Census records provide the following information: 1870 census of WI: John HAAG, age 45, a Farmer, born Germany Mary R.
