This set of stray photographs is now up at Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mdianerogers

A number of these photos are from Minnie KLUCAS. The photo above identifies her with Alfred and Richard Klucas. Might this be Wilhelmine Sarah STREICH, née, KLUCAS, who grew up in Minnesota?

I found an obituary for Minnie Streich from the Herald-Journal of Winsted, Minnesota, U.S.A. She had 2 brothers, Alfred(wife, Freda) Klucas and Richard 'Dick' (wife Ollie) Klucas. Their parents were Frank Klucas and Louisa Kretz: http://www.herald-journal.com/obits/2002/streich0402.html

No mention there of Canadian connections, but a Rootsweb search turned up a connection quickly. Look for both KLASEUS and KLASGES in the history Footprints of time : Viscount and district, 1905-1985 on-line at Our Roots: www.ourroots.ca

If this is the right family, Minnie would have TREICHLER relatives in Arizona and elsewhere. I will try to contact someone who may know more.

Another photo in this group of strays was sent to Mr. Arthur ANDERSIN Viscount Sask Canada from his cousin Margaret Anderson of Hillsboro [Kansas, U.S.A.?]

KLUCAS, KLASEUS, KLASUS - Viscount, Saskatchewan, Canada - 8th Edition - Smile for the Camera

to Myrtle From Minnie Klucas

Addressed to: Miss Myrtle Klaseus Viscount Sask. Canada

Split-back postcard, no postmark or identification


The theme for this 8th edition of Smile for the Camera is: Stocking Stuffer. Show us that picture that would make a great Stocking Stuffer and tell us whose stocking you'd stuff. Share!

Here are two from a group of photographs that would make just the right 'stocking stuffers' for that special person. I'm happy to share these here and would be thrilled to send these to someone who can identify themselves as connected to these people.

I will put the other photographs up on Flickr in the next few days and post the link here. These were a set of stray photos bought together - it appears most may belong together. Several are identified like these two are as from Viscount, Saskatchewan, Canada.

No dates, no postmarks, etc. though.
