Anna T. Gulde--1917


Anna T. Gulde (1890-1918) was the fourth child of Eusebius (1858-1954) and Catherine Leineweber Gulde (1857-1943). Little is known about her life. She was born in Jefferson County and may have died in Henry County. Family lore reveals that she died during the Great Flu Epidemic of 1919. 25 percent of all American households were struck by the Influenza and many with deadly outcomes. In this photo, likely taken a year before her death, Anna (left) poses with her friend Myrtle Trischman.
