One photo is an original studio picture of "Friederich and Selma Meyer", taken in about 1910. Photo was taken in Milwaukee, WI and he looks about 60 and she about 50. The second is a copy of a group photo taken about 1900, of Alfred Meyer, Carl Franke "gr. grandfather", Irma Meyer Mahr, Frederika Koehler Franke "great grandmother", and Selma Franke Meyer "grandmother". I found Friedrich and Selma Meyer in the 1900 federal census and 1905 WI state census, living in Oak Creek (Milwaukee Co.) WI, as Fred and Selma. 1900 census shows Fred was born Oct 1849, and Selma in 1860. In 1905, however, in same location, he was listed as 52, and she as 45. In 1900, their children were Ella, born Sep 1884, Dornetta/Arnetta, born Sep 1886, and Alfred, born Sep 1887. Carl and Fredrika Franke were parents of Selma Meyer, and I found them in the 1880 census for Oak Creek (Milwaukee Co.) WI, with their children. Charles A. Franke was age 53, Fredrika was age 49, with children Oscar, 25; Ernest, 18; Selma, 20; Herman, 14, and living with them was 80 yr. old John G. Franke.
