Mary Lou Nenno, in June 2003, relates that her interest in collecting and
organising originated when her sister shared a family tree school project
many years ago. The pictures she owns had been stored in the attic of
Evelyn Nenno (a daughter of John J. Nenno) on Grove Street in Beaver Dam,
Wisconsin, but that upon the death of Evelyn, many of the pictures were removed
by an uncertain relative and the originals remain out of view today, though
professionally-made copies are part of this album.
Mary Lou did most of her work in the early 1980's, collaborating with the late
Don Gentner of Palo Alto, Clayton Nenno of New York, and Betty Nenno Wilson
of New York and later Sun Lakes, Arizona. In June 2003, Mary Lou kindly
loaned some of her collection to Tom McFarland for digital reproduction.
In addition, Marlene (Nenno) Berres retains a dozen
framed photos dating from 1875 to 1920, images of the Agatha Berchler,
Bertha Zastrow and descendents which may be reproduced here eventually.
