The Dinser Family mentioned in the article is my wife's great grandfather, John Dinser. His son in law was Charles Tombraegel, my wife's grandfather. They farmed the plot and took the produce and flowers to market in Covington. |

 |
He and his wife are buried in the cemetery of Holy Guardian Angels which is on a hill by the Expressway off Madison Pike and Dudley. Few people would know it is there. |

The nuns in the picture are Sisters Gerard and Ancilla who taught at Holy Guardian Angels in Sanfordtown. |

This picture was taken between 1904 -1910. The girl standing on the left next to the nun is Clara Rump Eilers. She was born 1895 in Sanfordtown. My cousin and I suspect the 3 little girls front row on the left are Gripshovers: Katherine, Mary and Elizabeth but we can not prove it. It would be wonderful if someone else has a copy with names. |
