Ada Reister Born August 5, 1890 Daughter of Mary Graves Reister who was a sister to Grandma Wheeler

Carrie Reister Was older than Ada Married Edward Goff, Nov. 28, 1894 The Reisters were Catholics and this was an outfit for her first communion or something similar to that.

This is Porter and Alice Cochran of Vincennes. The Cochrans were related to us in two different ways. I don't know how or if these are related.

Fannie Reister. On the back of this picture, Mammy has written "Dad's first cousin".  There must be a connection between the Buckners and the Cochrans as well as Mammy's sister marrying a Cochran, because Mammy always thought Jane Buckner was a Cochran for some reason. Fannie was Mammy's favorite cousin.

Max's trip to Washington, Indiana, solved the mystery of who this little girl (above) was. The back of the picture says "Sylvia Goff".  She would be the daughter of Carrie Reister and Edward Goff.
