Most Wanted

He was born in June about 1857, we think in Portage, Columbia County, Wisconsin. Family history say he was killed during the Hinckley fire (Pine County, Minnesota) in about 1894. Would like to find more information about him!

I am looking for photos, especially portraits of any person listed in "My Family" website. Please let me know if you have any photos you are willing to share. Thank you!

I am trying to find who owns this picture. It looks like there is someone next to her, plus it is a very poor copy!

My cousin, Rick Dreher, mentioned seeing a photo of Johann Adam Wilhelm "William" Dreher. This was a photo he remembers seeing as a young boy when visiting relatives in Long Prairie. It was a photo of William with his foot on a large tortoise. It was supposedly taken while William was sailing between Germany and South America. Has anyone else ever seen this?
