I looked at the ages of the girls and concluded they were Reiters. You also answered a question about the son---I didn't know his name and had just heard that died young.

This mystery photo is indeed my grandmother, Lana Melissa Reiter holding baby Eloise on the right, with Nina on the left and my mother, "Mae" in front with Gladys on her right. This was probably taken in Missoula, MT where they moved in 1916 when mother was 10. Mother claims she was born in 1906 but there has been some question about whether it was actually 1905. We don't know what the birth records show. Louis and Lana also had a daughter, Lulu Ellen who was born in 1899 and died in infancy. Their only son, Albert, who was born in 1903 was killed in a horse and buggy accident in 1918 in Missoula.<br /><br />It was amazing to read the handwritten invitation to my Mother and Dad's wedding. In fact, it looks like Mother's writing.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17139423927718023195noreply@blogger.com
