Left: Inscribed on the back: "Daniel Zwilling (Died 1918) (Susan's husband)."  Right: "Susannah Zwilling".  Both photos probably taken at the same sitting as their children (they have uniform mounts and photographer inscriptions), below, i.e., c. 1902, and this is probably on occasion of their marriage.
Inscribed on the back: "Daniel & Elizabeth Zwilling, Aunt Susan's step-children". One of three uniformly mounted photographs from the Gibson Art Galleries, Chicago. From the photographs of Mary and Lyle Vaubel. Susan was Lyle's aunt.
