Gross Papa Hietter Family
Including this duplicate with writing on it. This helps identify some of the people in the photo. The really old man is "Gross Papa Hietter". To his left is his daughter, Veronica. Standing behind her is her husband, Adam Gilles. They were parents of 5 children including my grandmother, Veronica B. Gilles who is standing on far left with her twin sister, Mary. They are wearing identical dresses. "Top 3 boys are Ed, John and Wm. Gilles". I'm unsure which ones she's referring to. . . Also, identifies someone in photo as Annie Hieter Weaver who was daughter of Aunt Bridget, but I'm not sure which one in the photo is Annie.
