Granewitsch Family: 1895

My grandmother Elizabeth is standing in the front row between her mother, Augusta and her father, William. As I was told by my grandmother, this professional photograph was taken of the family because Augusta, at age 36, had to have all of her teeth removed. In those days, there were cases of persons dying from having their teeth extracted. Columbus, Ohio 1895. View full size
