Subject: Re: [MARION COUNTY, IN] FOLTZ Family Photograph



There is a possibility this photo belongs to the family of a friend of my
Mother's. Jet and Indiana Foltz lived in Decatur twp Marion Co (Valley Mills
area) in the 1920s and 1930s. I'll do some research and let you know. If
this is part of her family, she would be delighted, I know, to have the
photograph.
