Letter to Mss. Helen Isaac, Covington Kentucky, 1423 Madison Avenue written 4th September 1935 by Marie Weil from Emmershausen to resolve the open distribution of an heritage between three beneficiary relatives in the United States of America. The signature under the english translation seems to be from "Alfred Achenbach"

 

The following series of photographies must have been sent from the relatives in the United States of America to the Weil family at Emmershausen about 1950, following repeated requests to sent pictures because due to the long, contactless absence of the emigrants since 1890-1900, the in Germany remaining family part had no more visual imagination about their relatives in the USA. Basically the grand daughter of Marie Weil, the only representant of the second generation in Germany, Rosemarie Klinge-Weil (later Rosemarie Zanger), growing up to adolescence had no vivid idea about her relatives in the USA.
