Jesse, Anna with her sister Wilhelmina, ca 1878

Carole Jean Benkelman writes that the back of this photo was inscribed "Mother age 13 - and Aunt Anna." It was taken at a photography studio in Sturgis, Michigan in 1878. Anna Sophia and Wilhelmina "Minnie" Johanna Jesse were the two eldest daughters of George and Maria Jesse. Both sisters later moved to the border of Kansas and Colorado after their marriages to men in the employ of the Benkelman Ranch. Anna married John "Bum" Burgwald and Minnie married Ben Benkelman.
