Strickler family in California
On the back, the picture has a stamp from a Los Angeles photo developer service with the date July 31, 1933.
I think the kneeling man is Benjamin, and the woman in the middle is Sadie. That probaby makes the other two man Fred Strickler. Based on ages, I think the kids are Mary Louise, the baby, William the youngest boy, Jack, the middle boy, and Fred, the oldest boy (in the shadow).

     
Strickler Family in California
The original of this picture is very small and blurry, so this is as good as it gets. I think the woman and man on the stools are Sadie and Samuel Strickler. I'm told Madeline and Myrtle were small women, so they may be the two standing behind Sadie and Samuel.

On the back, the picture has a stamp from a Los Angeles photo developer service with the date July 31, 1933.

     Sarah died on Jul 17, 1934 at age 77.3,5
