"Gottlieb Hahn was my great, great grandfather. His son Conrad (brother to Wm. pictured) was my great grandfather. Next came Mable Hahn my grandmother who married James Trimble my grandfather. The Hahns came from Germany and prospered in agriculture in Illinois. The state honored Gottlieb with master farmer award in 1880-90s. Not many Hahn descendants are left in Ford county today, as all 9 children moved out of the area except my grandparents . . . "

"I don't know anything about the man in this old photo, except that he probably was a member of the Blesch, Fencken, Gurrad, or Zimmerman families. Can anyone help me?"
