This photo was probably taken on the farm that was home to the Wilhelm Friedrich and Henriette (Starkebaum) Fiegenbaum family and later the Edwin Friederich and Lucille (Rinne) Fiegenbaum family, south of Mayview, Missouri.

Caroline Clara (Fiegenbaum) Fieker recalls:

"And if I remember right, it was taken at our house back in the field close to an apple orchard. It must have been Easter time. We are all dressed up (except the boys) and reason I know we were "dressed up" in our Sunday best, is that I have that trademark of a bow stuck in my hair, and mom put that in whenever I had to be "dressed up" which meant going anywhere off the farm, be it to town, church, or visiting."
