The adults standing are Joe Rishel, Alice and Harvey Williams, Dorothy Mines Rishel, my grandparents Roscoe and Rhea Mines.   Sitting in the rocker is my great-grandmother Carrie Titchenal Mines, holding her granddaughter Katherine Rishel, and flanked by David and Ruth Rishel.  Probably about 1930.

After standing empty for a few years, the Rishel home is looking a little the worse for wear these days (June 2004). Dorothy Mines first bought this house in partnership with brothers Lloyd and Roscoe, eventually buying them out.   After she married Joe Rishel, they raised their family here.
Left to right: Carrie Mines, Emma Rose, Alice Willliams, David Rishel being held by Harvey Williams, Dorothy Mines Rishel, and Joseph Rishel.  In front of the Rishel home, about 1926. Alice Williams and Emma Rose are Carrie's nieces, her sister's daughters.
The Rishel kids growing up: Kay, Ruth, David and Joanne.
Joe Rishel, his mother, and I've forgotten if this is Kay or Ruth holding the baby.  Shame on me!
