Pauline, the eldest, my mother's grandmother, knew her mother was dying of tuberculosis; the others look like they did too. Pauline told my mother about having to sleep in her dying mother's bed and being afraid.

Her mother died when Pauline was 12.

The Meier children, with their dying mother Katherina (Rosenberger) Meier

Children, clockwise from lower left: Sophia, Pauline, Ida, Jacob, Emil.

Sophia later changed her name to Margaret; I don't know if that was a middle name.

Family photo of Katherina (Rosenberger) Meier and her children, taken c. 1883, in the possession of my mother, Ruth Ann Elsaesser Hawkins, scanned by my father, Bruce Hawkins. Long out of copyright, and a possession of our family in any case. By T. Richard, photographer, said to be active in Zurich from 1880 to 1890.
