Addressed to: “Miss Amalie Ueberall, 838 – 13 Str., City.” (The “city” in the address is Milwaukee.)
The sender wrote in German: “Fiele Grüsse fon Rose und Adele Triebel.” and she must have been substituting the letter “f” for the letter “v” unless maybe this was an old-fashioned spelling. Otherwise it would be written as:
“Viele Grüsse von Rose und Adele Triebel,” translating as “Kind regards from Rose and Adele Triebel.” And the Triebel sisters couldn’t be any cuter in their rather unusual-looking winter outfits!
The Triebel Family was found on the 1920 Federal Census for Milwaukee: Charles, born in Germany, about 1878; his wife Marie, born Germany about 1887; and their daughters Rose and Della, born Wisconsin, about 1905 and 1906, respectively. Charles was working as a machinist for a cab company, and the family lived at 773 47th St.
