Blumenstiel Sisters

My great-great aunts, Elizabeth Blumenstiel Williams and Helen Blumenstiel, in Reichensachsen, Hessen, Germany in the late 1870s. They immigated to Freeport , Illinois, USA with their family in 1885. Helen and their brother, William, ultimately settled in Spokane, Washington, USA. Elizabeth remained in Freeport. They were sisters to my great-grandfather, John William Blumenstiel. #falknerjarrell #familyhistory #genealogy #familyphotos #ancestry #history #knowyouroots #genealogyresearch #familytree #familyhistorian #genealogia #blumenstielgenealogy #blumenstiel #freeportillinois #freeportil #illinois #spokane #spokanewa #spokanewashington #immigrant #immigrants #antiquephoto #oldphotos #oldphoto #ancestor #19thcentury #reichensachsen #hessen #hesse #werrameissnerkreis
