Mainzlarer Weg, Lollar, Germany

This is the house that Lydia Henricksen, fled to with her brother Adolf, and daughter Renate during the bombing of Geissen on December 5,6 of 1944. 

Marx Family Home from early 1900 to 1939.

This is in Lollar, I (Lydia Henricksen) was born in this house, my grandparents (Karl and Margarete Munzert lived there, it was a Company owned place - Opa did work for Buderus and they had these rows of apartments, they are still there. I do believe that my Grandma lived there until Opa died and than she had to move out.

Renate Pore 5th grade class picture

Found this one at Mom's this weekend. There is some writing on the back, identifying all the girls in the picture but none of the boys. In the top row we have Sandra, Renate, Patty. In the middle row Diana and Virginia and in the bottom row, Sharon, Roberta and Judy. This picture would have been from 1955, in Pierre, South Dakota. The note on the back is in German and my mothers hand writing. Note that she identified Sharon as Renate's best friend and Roberta as an Indian Girl.
