I've "rescued" an old photograph album which appears to have originally belonged to the STARK Family of Germany and Wisconsin. Based on limited research I do find a number of STARK Family members in Appleton, WI during this time period including: Louis & Louisa STARK and 4 children Karl age 11, Ernest age 8, Louis age 5, and Emma age 3, living in Appleton during the 1880 census along with Louisa's Mother Emma HOLTZ. Louis Sr. is born in Prussia, age 40, Louisa born in Mecklenburg, age 35 and her Mother Emma age 60, also born in Mecklenburg. The two oldest children born in Prussia and the others in WI. Also living in Appleton, WI during the 1880 census was Louisa STARK age 58, born in Prussia, living alone at that time she was noted as divorced. Another STARK Family living in Appleton was the family of Joseph & Louisa STARK, Joseph was age 55, born in Prussia, Louisa age 48, also born in Prussia, with two children living in their household, Theodore age 21, and Anna age 16, both born in WI. I believe that Theodore may have married Julia Marry HUETTER and had a son Louis Friedrick Theodor STARK in 1891 at Appleton, WI. The album includes numerous photographs described as follows: STARK Family Photograph Album · Unidentified Male, Ross Studio in Appleton, WI, 1880’s, 50’s · “Mayme”, Reed Studio in Rice Lake, WI, 1890’s, early teens · “Annie”, Miller Studio in Appleton, WI, 1880’s, 20’s or 30’s · “Lizzie’s Brother”, T.
