This is a family of Friedrich Napoleon Koenemann, my great-grandfather (June 27, 1838 - March 23, 1903), sitting second from left, and his wife, Olga Ivanovna Gnedich (1849-1925), sitting first from right. They are shown at this photo with their eight children and with their daughter-in-law Maria Efremovna Koenemann (Sokolova). My grandmother Olga (1891-1976), the youngest sibling, stands third from right. She was 10 or 11 years old at this photo (born July 1st, 1891), and photo made in summer 1902. The picture was taken at the family datcha in Tayninka near Moscow, Russia.
