Willms Sisters Holding Dolls
| Lydia Willms (b. 1896), center, with her twin sisters Emma (1893-1974) and Marge (1893-1973) holding their dolls posing standing outside a building, probably their house in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They are wearing fancy hats with flower decorations. The dolls are dressed in bonnets and long, white dresses. They were the daughters of Gustav Willms (c. 1854-1917) and Kunigunde (Dorn) Willms (1857-1941). Gustav ran a cigar factory at the back of the Willms home on Muskego Avenue, Milwaukee. |
