Joseph and Anna Gulde




Welcome to my new blog on the Gulde-Ayres family history. I dedicate this blog to Joseph Gulde (1896-1983) and Anna Ayres Gulde (1901-1982). I plan to post hundreds of photos that are in my possession. You are welcome to any of them. Check back frequently!

Joseph and Anna Gulde dwelled at 330 East 6th Street in Rushville, Indiana from 1937 until their deaths in the early 1980s. All three of these photos were taken in the mid-1950s in the backyard of their 6th Street home. You will note the evergreen tree. Joseph originally planted it next to the house along the front porch shortly after he bought the property, but he quickly realized that it was getting too big so he transplanted it in the backyard. It became one of the tallest evergreens in Rushville!

The grandchild who appeared in the lower left of the top photo was likely Cindy Gulde. Her father Joseph (Bud) Gulde purchased the house next to Grandma and Grandpa. In the bottom photo you can see that Bud is remodeling that house. You can also see a portion of Grandma's flower garden. She loved flowers particularly daisies.

Cousins, feel free to comment and add your memories!!
