1935 photo of Mrs. John Lax and friends, Wisconsin
I purchased the subject snapshot of an elderly woman and man and three younger women and a younger man sitting on the steps of a porch to a house.It is identified on the back:
"Mrs John Lax on left &
friends - Wisconsin"
The print was made by Bear Photo Services and is dated "Sept. 18 1935."
The only likely match I can find on ancestry.com is a couple listed in the 1930 Census data for Eaton Township, Manitowoc, WI, namely John Lax born about 1853 in WI, who in about 1878 married Margaret (maiden name unknown), born about 1856 in WI.Living next door to this couple were Walter Lax, a farmer, born about 1880 in WI, and his sister, Emma Lax, born about 1883 in WI, who did housework for her mother.I assume Walter and Emma were childen of John and Margaret.
