Henry SCHMALENBERG, Elizabeth GAUER (nee Hertz), August BUSCHAU, Rudolph GAUER
Seated on floor between Elizabeth and August:
Jacob GAUER

Minnie, Anna and Henry are siblings.
Julia, Mathilde, Rudolph and Jacob are the children of Elizabeth and her husband Franz.

Family members not present in this photo:
• Franz GAUER (b.1832), Elizabeth's husband who died in 1882 in Sophiental,Russia
• Franz GAUER (b.1876), Rudolph's brother who died in 1882 in Russia
• Emilie GAUER (b. 1868) Rudolph's sister who did not come with the rest of the family to Canada from Russia (presumably married before 1890)
• Also missing are the various children alive at this time: Jacob, Henry, Rudolph Jr. & possibly Leo GAUER (Rudolph and Anna's children), Charlie NEILSON (Tom and Julia's child) and Matilda BUSCHAU (August and Mathilde's child)

Matilda vs Mathilde?: my Family members recall Mathilde only as "Mildred" and the english of Mathilde is Matilda, however, I am confident Mildred and Mathilde are the same person.
