    Martin and Albert Ekum
    Probably taken in the later years of the first decade of the 20th century after the Ekums had returned from California. Martin would have been in his late teens and Albert in his mid 20s.

    The original is an oval picture mounted on heavy paperboard. The studio is "Henry and Jasperson, Viroqua, Wis." On the back Cora wrote "My Cousins Albert & Martin Ekum."

    Ekum children and Georgie
    Probably taken in about 1900, not long before Susan and the younger children moved to California. (Tom, Albert, and Caroline were already out there.) In 1900, Martin would have been 10, Clara would have been 7, Rhoda would have been 4, and Georgie, Martha's son, would have been 2. The original is a print mounted on brown board stock. The studio is Adlington of Viroqua, Wis. On the back Cora wrote across the top "Roada Martin E. Clara." At the bottom she wrote "Georgie."
