This photograph was taken at Zay’s Studio in Findlay, Ohio. Unfortunately, there is no date written on the back of the photograph.
The back of the photograph reads, “Phillip and Mattie Hoil, Great Aunt and Uncle to John”.
I’m unsure of exactly how these two were related to John Motter. My guess is that Mattie was the sister of either Barbara Steiner (mother of Elizabeth Stetler, wife of Samuel Matter/Motter) or the sister of Katarina Wild (mother of Samuel Matter/Motter).
I’ll work on finding more information on these two….which may help me break through a brick wall!
