Some people have legible handwriting, some don't. Two people have written on the back of this print; one had good, readable handwriting, the other, not so much. So, the not-so-readable first. "Breyding House-Durand, Mich.-Vera born here." I have no idea if I've deciphered what I assume is a family name, but Breyding is my best guess. I really couldn't make out the town name, but I was sure of the first and last letter, so I scrolled through Michigan town names online, and the only one I found that made sense was Durand, a township with a 2020 population of 3,507. There's no date on the picture, but late 19th century is about right, so how much did the population change in 130 years?
The readable part, "Mother, Vera, Father Roy, Emma, Grandmother, Otto, George, Grandfather."
