Title: Some Research Guidance Please
Post by: Uhnnohn on Monday 20 May 24 20:15 BST (UK)
Need some help with 
 
1. Deciphering some writing 
2. Suggestions for researching (free if possible) to see if I could find out first names 
 
Kumener 
Virta Ave UNKNOWN Pabst Farm 
Does this seem right? 
(not sure about the word before Pabst) 

The crayon portraits were purchased about 50 miles from what used to be Pabst Farm
Pabst is/was a famous Milwaukee (USA) beer brewer

Suggestions on how to best research further?

If it helps what you have are 2 photo enlargements that
have been over-sketched due to loss of definition.
It looks like 1890's going by the woman's dress style.
I would suggest they are in their 40's.

A possible Kauminer family in 1880 Milwaukee.
