  Notes	(1) Elizabeth Ann Grubb: NOTES: (Compiler's note: The photograph copied from the original, owned by Margarett STEININGER, is of the Adam MOW children in the early 1900s. The two sisters, Anna and Sarah, are standing on the front porch of what appears to be a farm house. The four brothers are seated on the steps. Copying the names from the back of Margarett's photograph, compiler has tried to identify the individuals, but may not have the correct name attached to the person. If it is correct, Marion MOW appears to be of no more than average height, perhaps short, in fact. He is heavy-set, and although he is wearing a hat with full brim, his face appears to be somewhat round, clean-shaven and of ruddy complexion. He has a rather long, narrow nose, as do most of the others in the photo. His hands, resting on his knees look large and work-toughened. He is wearing a light-colored shirt, with the collar buttoned and the long sleeves rolled to his elbows, light-colored work pants and suspenders.) REFERENCES: 1.
