Three Generations of Brehmers



In this photo are William Brehmer in the back, then from left to right: Consuelo "Connie" Vasquez Brehmer, Letitia Porter, Albert Brehmer, Jimmy Porter, and Albert Robert "Bobby" Brehmer, son of Albert & Connie.



This is the first picture I have ever seen of Connie and Bobby Brehmer.


~~Thank you VERY MUCH to Wendy Kantymir Nance for sharing this photo from her Aunt Ellen Hoffman's collection. ~~

Porter Children



This is Jimmy Porter and sister Letitia. I did not know until Wendy sent this photo that Jim and Hilda had another child besides Jimmy. Letitia May Porter was born May 13, 1933 and died in 1938 at the age of 5. We do not know why. Jimmy is two years younger than Letitia, born March 8, 1935.

These photos were probably taken shortly before Letitia's death.

~~Thank you to Wendy Kantymir Nance for sharing this photo from her Aunt Ellen Hoffman's collection. ~~

Hilda Brehmer Porter ?



Hilda was a nurse, and this bears a resemblance to her older photos so I am assuming this is her. Please correct me if you think I am in error.

~~Thank you to Wendy Kantymir Nance for sharing this photo from her Aunt Ellen Hoffman's collection. ~~

Brehmers & ? ?



I'm not sure who this is in the photo with William & Helena. Do you know? The back of the photo simply says 1942.
