Looking from the church across Hwy 14 to the Roseville Store.  The car looks like a 1935.  Farmers will notice the corn rows which could be cultivated straight or at an angle.

A view from the Store looking at St. Mary’s Catholic Church and the old school which was torn down in 1963 and a new school was built.

Wrigley Field

Copy of John Koenigsfeld’s Citizenship paper in 1885 (Peter’s father).  Name is spelled Kingfield which is the German meaning.  Probably changed when they arrived in the U.S.

Looking through the overhang, you can see the George & Rose Naumann home that used to be north of the store.  It was a big house—now gone.
