Unknowns from Woodson County, Kansas

  A couple of years ago I was blessed to have a cousin let me copy all the photos out of a photo album that had been my great-grandmother Minnie (Schaede) Murray's.  Some of the pictures were identified, but the majority were not.  I'm going to share them here in hopes I can find someone else to help me identify them:)  Minnie grew up in Neosho Falls, Woodson County, Kansas and died in LeRoy, Coffey County, Kansas.  The Yates Center pictures are most likely either Schaede, Yeager, Krien, or other branches of her family.

Guess Who?

Everyone has those pictures, those unmarked ones that taunt you with their hidden identities.  Don't give up hope on them, at every chance you get, send them out to new cousins you find and see if they find a familiar face.  That worked for me once, I sent xerox copies of my unknowns to a cousin and she found one that was an exact match to one in her collection - he was unmarked there too, but we narrowed down the family he belonged to.  So, to whomever may read this blog, I'm going to put my unknowns into cyberspace in hopes of finding out who they are:)  These are from my Dad's side of the family (Murray, Schaede, Krien lines).
