  Thanks for your thoughts on this.  Just a bit more background info: It has always been said that the father and mother in this photo didn't know each other's language when they first met. Her family(The Dellers) spoke German and his family(Smith) spoke French and originated from the Alsace Lorraine area. This made research easier for me because the census and other info lists these Smiths as French. This made it easier to pick out the related Smiths among all the others out there. A colorization would be great. I didn't ask for this because I thought it might be too difficult.
