Duerksen Family Photos

On the back of the photo of the little baby girl it says, "Thelma Jean Duerksen, this girl is missing Mrs. Mary (Duerksen) Wiebe Sister."


Information sent to me by Greg Pilgrim concerning Thelma Jean Duerksen states:  " Thelma Jean Duerksen, the daughter of Abraham J  and Clara Duerksen. She died in 1922."  
The information on the back of the photo appears to be wrong.

If anyone has any information concerning Thelma Jean Duerksen please let me know. 



The following photos were taken in Bessie, Oklahoma at a family reunion. I'm not sure of the date.

Where this was taken? 
What school was this?

Thelma Jean Duerksen was the daughter of Abe and Clara Duersken who died in, I believe, 1922.

Greg Pilgrim, I spoke to Fred your second cousin and he remembers you. I told him you'd contacted me through the blogspot blog and he was very happy you did. We are trying to find more info on Thelma Jean. He talked about Louis Duerksen Pilgrim. I tried to connect with you through Google + but didn't know how. Thank you for the info.
