NOTES

Edwin Francis Lehman was married twice. First to Nellie Towersand second to Selma Selberg. I believe this is Nellie Towers due to the
fact that she was still alive in the 1895 state census of Minnesota and I would date this photograph a bit earlier that 1895 due to the style. I also
believe that Floyd John was her son and not Selma Selberg due to the fact that he was born in 1894 and she was still alive and married to
Edwin Lehman as stated per the 1895 state census even though on the Social Security Applications and Claims Index for Floyd he state
that Selma Selberg was his mother possibly because he never knew his birth mother. Possibly Nellie died when he was but a child.
