The Riehles of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

 

This photograph from approximately 1900 is reported to be a Riehle family gathering in Menomonee Falls.  Andrew Riehle Sr. moved to Menomonee Falls in the late nineteenth century from Morris, Indiana.  His father, Leonhard Riehle, and grandfather, Felix Riehle,  moved to Indiana from Wagshurst, Baden, Germany in 1847.  

 

 

This post card was sent from Menomonee Falls in December 1918 to Andrew Riehle Jr.  It appears to read, in part, as follows:  Dear Brother, did not hear from you for a long time.  (?) is worrying that you don't write.  We got a letter from George.  He is in France.  He thought that you are in France... (?)

 

 

Clarence Riehle, perhaps the son of Andrew Sr.
