| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled Mrs. H. C. Kahl. Based on information in the federal census records and Davenport city directories, it seems likely this is Marie Kahl, daughter of Henry C. and Elizabeth Kahl. Marie was the eldest of four girls, and was born in about 1904. See also images X495, X593, X819 and X1513 for other Kahl children. |
