NOTE: The following identifications are guesses …

Back row (left to right): Edwin H Kellermann; Herman W Kellermann; Conrad F Kellermann; Wilhelmina Kellermann; Mathew Mattmuller; Elizabeth Kellermann; Norman A Skeels; Marie Kellermann; Siegmund D Peper
Middle row (left to right): Mary (Hornbrook) Kellermann; Winona (Bohner) Kellermann; Caroline (Bechtold) Kellermann

I am waiting on help from Kellerman descendants on identifying the people in the photo. If you know, please comment on this page!

I can, however, identify the most of the names in the caption:

  • Mary:
  • Winona: Winona Bohner, wife of Herman W Kellermann
  • Betty:
  • Matt: Matthew Mattmuller, husband of Wilhelmina Kellermann
  • Norman: Norman Arthur Skeels, husband of Elizabeth Kellermann
  • Sieg: Siegmund David Peper, husband of Marie Kellermann

The following is transcribed from two pages (titled “Historic First”) in the album created by Frederick William Kellerman (1900-1980):

Natalie Elizabeth Eberlein and Gustav Pluedeman, Emilia Pluedeman and Wilhelm Schenk were married in a double wedding at the Lutheran Church on Tuesday, 30 September 1892. The ceremony was performed by Reverend Theodor Nickel.

Front row, L-to-R: Nathalie Eberlein, Gustav Pluedemann, Emelia Pluedemann, Wilhelm Schenk (Photo uploaded to Ancestry.com by Tim Schenk )

Gustav and Emilia Pluedemann were siblings, and Nathalie Eberlein and Wilhelm Schenk were first cousins.

I suspect that the members of the wedding party were also Eberleins and Schenks, but the quality of the photograph makes it difficult to identify people.
