I found another photo in the same shop by a San Francisco photographer with the following written on the back: "Lena Schaab age 18 years Lena Schaab Searns" This photo looks like the oldest of the little girls in the "Kate Schaab" photo. In 1870 in Franklin Co Ohio I see a William and Kate Scaab with a daughter Lena living with George and Salina Schaab. In San Francisco around 1889 - 1891 I see a Kate and/or Katrina Schaab and Lena Schaab living at 806 Union. I think Searns may really be Serens. In 1900 I see a Daniel and Lena Serens living in San Francisco with daughters Aimee Edna and Anita Grace. Daniel Serens was from Canada and Lena was from Ohio. I see Lena Serens again widowed in 1920. Joecan
