Unidentified People
(2 photos, above)
These were taken by Leyden’s Photography in Manning, IA. The family names in my tree are Newell, Sparks, Rayburn, Kleppinger. None lived in Manning that I can tell... perhaps the Kleppinger’s as they moved to western Iowa and then on to Nebraska. If someone even knew what years Leyden’s was in business that would be helpful. Thank you!
