Mary, birth name Maria Anna was born in Baden, Germany in 1856 and was the daughter of Mathias Roesch and Magdalena Jehle. The others were born in Potosi, Wisconsin and are the children of Mathias and his second wife Juliana Hodapp. Sophia Luella b 1863, Charles b 1865, Louis b 1868, Otto b 1870, and August b 1874.
If you look closely at Louis, you will notice a problem with his left eye. He was kicked in the head by a horse and lost his eye. Later, he received a glass eye. His eyes were blue.
Here is a picture of Louis as an adult wearing his glass eye. He certainly is handsome.
