Here is another previously unidentified photograph that I think I have figured out. The photo was taken by Myhre Studio in Luverne, Minnesota — a photography studio that opened in 1892 and amazingly is still in existence. Luverne is the county seat of Rock County, which sits in the southwestern corner of Minnesota on the border with South Dakota.

Nathalie (“Dolly”) Eberlein and her husband, Gus Pluedeman, lived in Rock County, Minnesota at the time of both the 1895 Minnesota census and the 1900 federal census. The children in the photo must be their two daughters, Edna (born 1894) and Eunice (born 1897).
