From: Shelley Cardiel Date: 11/11/05 23:20:42 To: IAPOLK-L@rootsweb.com Subject: ROUSH Family Photograph I've "rescued" an old photograph of Merl & Harold ROUSH which was taken at the Kramer's Audio Studio in Des Moines, Iowa. The photograph was likely taken in the 1890's with the oldest boy about 3 years old and the youngest likely only 1-2 years old at the time. Based on limited research I was able to find Merl Daniel ROUSH b. 9 May 1893 in West Bend, IA to parents Gavin or Guy ROUSH and Clara EERNISSE. Merl married Mable FINCH in Le Mars, IA in 1914, and died 29 April 1939. Merl's brother Harold Elgar ROUSH was b. 14 Jun 1894 at Manson, IA. Harold married Pearl HEALES or HEALIS in IA in April 1917, and died 29 Mar 1985 in Seal Beach, CA. I'm hoping to locate someone from this family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to their family. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
