Here's one that's not very exciting, as we've seen it before — Third Street in Hobart, looking east from the intersection with Main, circa 1910.

But the message on the back had me intrigued.

I said to myself, "Self, I wonder if 'Hattie' is our own Hattie Schumacher Schavey."
The baby girl was born December 25, 1909. The 1910 Census, written May 5, 1910, shows William and Hattie Schavey with a baby girl, Grace, who was then four months old. So … it's possible.
I don't know who Margeret was. (The 1910 Census shows Miss Anna Schwieman, 35 years old, as a domestic servant in the household of Ferdinand and Norma Armbruster of Oak Park, Illinois.)
