Rosie and Eddie's wedding--June, 1948

Rose Hesch and Ed Janish
on their wedding day, 19 June 1948

Hesch sisters: Katie, Rosie and Fronie

It's hard to say which aunt and uncle are favorites, but these two come pretty darn close.  They lucked out by being my godparents 13 months later, so that helps.


If you've followed the blog, we questioned when and where some of these pics were taken, but when you see them all together, there's no doubt that day was the 19th of June, 1948.

On the church steps:  Groom's sister Irene Janish, Bride's sister in law, Linda Hesch,  the newlyweds Rose and Ed Janish, and the bride's brother Mike Hesch.  Not shown was another brother of the bride, Henry.

 I think the farm was the Janish farm in North Prairie, cuz I don't recognize the buildings as being the Hesch place in Royalton.  (If I'm wrong, leave it in the comments, and I'll change it).

Mike, flirting with Aunt Rosie's friend Bernice...lol




Thanks for these, Judy!
