Figure 1.--This CDV portrait shows the Lembecke brothers all dressed up in their suits in 1871. The boys wear lapelk suits, except for the younger boy who has a collar buttoning jacket. Two bows wear what look like small bows. All the boys seem to be wearing long pants. They were still quite common ecen for younger boys. The older boy in the chair is John Lembecke. The other brothers were Fred, Albert, and Bill. Someone thought it might be Henry rather than Fred. Another thinks Henry was too young to be in a 1871 portrait. The boys look to be about 8-16 years old. The portrait was taken by the A Scidmore stufio in Appleton. We are not sure about the state.
