The women in the photo are Reeber's descendent of my Great, Great, Great grandfather who came to America prior to the civil war from Wootenberg, Germany he fought in the Civil War before he was even an American Citizen and became a citizen a few years after the battle. Last summer a courier who was visiting New Orleans, Louisiana hand deliever a copy I made of the original documents dated 1860's from Wootenberg, Germany granting his journey to America. The copy of the original document is now in the town hall where my great great great grandfather was born.

Thank you I have all the original photos taken they were given to me prior to my grandmother and her sister death. Having all the documents. If this is not Lake Pontchartrain which I am certain it is. It may be the Gulf Coast, And there brother in law my grandfather came to America in 1913, on the S.S. Celtic a year after the Titanic sank, he from from Roscrea Ireland, and the Celtic was built by the shipping line which built the Titanic the Celtic was Christened in 1908 I have photos of my grandfather and his friends dancing at the bow of the Celtic. All the elders on both sides have sinced passed away. When my father died after 911 he was the last living elder.
