THE METZ FAMILY IN FRONT OF THE "GRANNY" HOUSE



The names from left to right are listed as—

Merel Metz,  Laura McClintic Metz (Samuel B. Metz’s first wife), Samuel K. Metz (Samuel B’s father), Roy B. Metz, Jane Wakefield (Samuel B’s mother) and Tom Metz.

Both Laura and Samuel K”. died in 1893, so I believe the photo was taken in the Summer of 1892.

The house is the “Granny” house built by Dr John Metz (Samuel K. Metz’s father) when Samuel K. took over the family farm in the middle 1800’s.

You can see the small white building  on the left side of the photo that was Dr. John Metz's office while he was a local doctor.

  1. Wonderful write-up, cousin! And the pictures add so much to the telling of the family history. Would you mind if I posted them to my family tree on Ancestry?
