    I love the photo! Do you know when it was taken?

    Smadar,
    I don't; but, my best guess is sometime in the late 1920's to early 1930's. John Dause died in Oct 1935. They are both about the same age and they both look to be in their late 20's early 30's.

    By the way, I thoroughly enjoy your two part immigration story and the conflicting information contained within.

    Charlie
