DORSCHEL AND GUTHEIL


Dorschel and Gutheil

The Dorschel woman in the photo is most likely a daughter of William Dorschel 
and his wife Louisa Rothman.  They were married in Chilton, Calumet County in 
1868.  William Dorschel moved to Chilton in 1866 and operated a sash and door 
factory in Chilton. William was born in Canada.

This photo can be one of only two women – Louisa Dorschel or Catharine Dorschel.  It is my VERY 
strong belief that the woman shown in the elder of the two, which would be Louisa.  I am giving
