Title: Photo of Kramer Brothers
Post by: lkmashek on Wednesday 30 March 16 22:41 BST (UK)
I would love to have this photo of the Kramer brothers restored.  They emigrated from Holland but I believe this photo was taken in the United States around 1920.

Here's two from me.  I think the original photo has been overpainted probably by the photographer.
The features are very perfect and the hair looks painted.

Not sure of the order in which they appear, but names were Willem (William) 1906-?, Piet (Peter) 1901-1984, Gerardus (Gerritt) 1899-1938, and Leendert (Leonard) 1903-1953,

Thank you ..that's very useful to know that Leendert can be an alternative spelling and Piet for Peter ...I will try those spellings in searches for other mystery European family members emigrated from Latvia via Austria and Holland
