That information means that the portrait I have of a young woman of 16-19 years, passed down from my grandfather, is almost certainly that of my great-grandmother, Minnie Mohr... My grandfather's baptismal certificate said she was from Bay City, but I had no luck finding her or her family there -- perhaps she was born there but grew up in Battle Creek. Now I have a new place in which to search for her and possibly even her marriage to Alfred Feltz, an actor. Thank you!
