Benkelman, Adam and Anna Catharina (Schaufele) ca 1860's
Adam and Catherine Benkelman were married in B?rtlingen, W?rttemberg around 1851; and then left almost immediately for New York, where their seven children were born. This photo of Adam and Catherine appears to have been taken when they both were in their mid 30's, probably while they were still living in Lancaster, Erie County, New York, and before their westward journey to Michigan.

Benkelman, Adam and Anna Catharina (Schaufele) ca 1878, Family Portrait
TOP ROW: Identified by Marjory Schwegler Battel, granddaughter of Lousia, to be l to r, standing, Sam (age 19), Ben Sr. (age 15), John (age 22), and George (age 27) BOTTOM ROW: from left to right, seated, Will (age 17), Louisa (age 25), Catharine (55) and Adam (53).
This is likely correct, however several descendants of Ben Sr instead believe he is seated next to his sister, Louisa, and elder brother Will is standing, second on the left.
It was probably taken near the families farm in Tuscola County, Michigan.
