A very handsome family. They look alike. Thank you for not photoshopping the photo and not hiding the flaws of the picture. It looks more original and gives the feeling of being there with them.

Answer 1

What a wonderful picture you have shared with us of the Teien family.  

I think this is probably one family with grandma sitting in with them for the picture. I love the little girl on the right side of the picture with her hair in braids.

And it looks like grandma and the two girls in back have the same material around their neck.

It is so sweet how the mom and dad are holding their little boy's hand in the picture.

The lead window behind them is very beautiful. I would love to have that in my home.

Thank you for sharing this marvelous picture with your WikiTree family.

God Bless!

Answer 2

What I like best about this photo is that the father and mother are holding the hands of the littlest one. A show of tenderness. This is a wonderful pic. I can tell it’s been handed around. Really nice suit the gentleman has on. Thanks for sharing, Robert!
