Among some photograph books, I know one is from the Krause line because it has Lebold Krause and Miss Adelia Krases' signatures written beautifully in ink in cursive.

I have inherited a beautiful photograph book from this Wilhelmine Krause line. Daniel Alexander Kuhn was my gggrandfather on the paternal Kuhn side.

That lineage went: Daniel Alexander Kuhn, Frederick Millard Kuhn, Millard Eugene Kuhn, to Frederick Ellis Kuhn, Sr.

It is a small, green, cloth-covered, gold-plated (psinted) hard paged, four inches by five inches by two and three-quarters inches thick, and it has a gold plated lock band from the last cover page to the front cover page of the book.

The inside front cover page states: " Photographs, Philadelphia, W. W. Harding, 326 Chestnut St." There is more written if you may be interested about the date, etc.

Additionally we have an eitght and one half inch by eleven inch by about four inch thick red cloth coverd book full of beuatiful, hansome types of people whom we believe are also of the Krause line - with no names indicated on any of them.

Are there any Krause kin knowledgeable of who these photos may represent? If this strikes an interesting note, please advise.

In the green photograph book, of the fifty photos or so, some three or four have some names underneath, but not all are of the Krause line it seems. So they may be potential spouses or relatives.

There are larger photos in the red cloth book and also about fifty unknown people there.

Please come forward with any information you may be willing to share as soon as you can.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Frederick E. Kuhn, Sr.
