Meta Barbara Kuehn Roussy 1883–1961 born and died in Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. Her father Ferdinand Kuehn 1844–1918 was born in Germany to parents Michael Schleh born 1775 and Anna Juliana Fuchs 1780–1854. Her mother Barbara Schleh Kuehn 1855–1934 was born in Wisconsin to German parents Daniel Schleh 1817–1887 and Barbara Specht 1819–1884 Meta married Charles Marious Roussy 1884–1960 born in Lausanne, Switzerland and had a son, Ralph Ferdinand Roussy 1910–1982, who married Leona Marie Clarice Kaszubowski 1913–1998. This surname is also seen misspelled in records as Keuhn.

This CDV photo was found in Worcester County, Massachusetts, therefore Meta may also have some New England roots. A beautiful old piece! Photographer Simon L Stein opened his photo studio in Milwaukee in 1879, and this portrait of Meta, born 1883, would have been taken in about 1887.

      Note: Hello from ~debra. I have spent years collecting over 10,000 ID’d lost family photos & paper from US flea markets & antique shops. I do the best gen research I can, but am always open to corrections. This is an original antique item, not a reprint. A new high quality rigid sleeve is included for extra protection, especially during shipping. You may buy a piece alone, or large intimate 300 dpi scans of the front and back sent immediately via email, or both. Please search carefully, as they are often found together and many may be related. I also invite you to join me at Ancestorville Genealogy on facebook. Thank you, enjoy! ~Debra Clifford (contact info on top bar)
