The Paff Family Album
from the 1800's to the present
Our Paff family ancestors are pictured here in a variety of photos taken in Wisconsin in the late 1800's. On the later pages, there are more contemporary photos of cousins and siblings taken over the past 40 years.
The photos are centered around Jake and Lena Paff, my grandparents, and their family and descendants. Most pictures were scanned from family albums. Identification is based on conversations with my father, Herb Paff, a year or two before his death in 1981. Also included are scans from the German family Bible that Jake and Lena received as a wedding gift from Fred and Mary Hahn (her sister and husband.)
All of the photos can be enlarged by clicking on them. Some of the enlargements are quite large, but if you want to download them, you can resize to whatever size you want and you will have good resolution. If you have questions, please email Priscilla (Paff) Wardlow at nrfbqueen@aol.com. Enjoy!
