Four Generations EDLM

FOUR GENRATIONS
Ella Elvina Rye Anderson Steinhauer (1915)
Dorothy Elaine Anderson Schneider (1938)
Lynelle Denise Schneider Dickey (1964)
Matthew Dickey (1992)
Dorothy is the oldest child of Ella and Lloyd Anderson. She moved to Kansas to attend the university and live with her aunt and uncle. She met and married Larry G. Schneider.
The picture is of their youngest child, Lynelle who is holding her son, Matthew. When sifting through old pictures, Old Trunks found a birth announcement for Matthew. Lynelle tells her grandmother they wonder if Matthew would have red hair. Look again at how the sun light enhances Lynelle's beautiful hair!
For the most part, the Schneider children grew up on a farmette near Hillsdale, Kansas. The picture is taken on the deck at their house. Lynelle's cousin, Rachel Anderson liked to go there and play with the kittens. One year, on Rachel's birthday, that is what she wanted to do; Lynelle was that important to her.
Lynelle and her husband, Mike have two children. Matthew, pictured and Marissa who attends elementary school in Hillsdale.
Marissa's grand mother, Dorothy, goes to school on a weekly basis and reads to the children. We can't help but wonder if Dorothy's mother, Ella did the same thing at Rosebank School in Rosewood, Minnesota.
