This photo arrived from a kind gentleman in Michigan who found it at an antique show. Wouldn't it be nice if we could find a descendant of this family to treasure it?
George and Jane Rosella (Bassett) Balser were residents of Delaware Township, Defiance County, Ohio. In this photo, they are shown with six children, five girls - Ethel, Mary Etta, Audrey, Hazel and J. Carrie. The baby may be their only son, Elmer, born in 1901 and died in 1902, which helps date the photo to circa 1901.
Jane and George are buried in the Sherwood Cemetery.
If you are a descendant interested in this photo, please email defiancegenealogy2002@yahoo.com and state your connection to the family.
This photo has found a home with a great grandson of the Balsers.
