Drexler family photos

I spent an enjoyable evening at the home of Anne and Gary Glisch.  Anne is my second cousin. I met many of my relatives for the first time. These relatives are all part of the Dembowiak part of the Drexler family. Anne's mother (Clara?) was a Drexler before marrying Stan Dembowiak.  There are several entries in Grandpa's diary about this family.
 I'm also posting some photos from the Drexler part of the family. Pancratius (1848-1887) and Mary (Schwarz?) Drexler had eight children: Joseph (1869-1908), Frank M. (1871-1894), Mary (1872-1955) John (1875-1939), Caroline (1877-?) [Note: I know Pancratius and Mary had three daughters and Caroline is listed in the 1900 census as one of them.], Theodore (1879-1930), Anna (1882-1965) and Theresa, my grandmother (1886-1961). I know that there's also Ottillie Drexler, but I'm not sure how she's related to the Drexlers.  [Note: Found out who she is. Ottillia Bleckinger Drexler findagrave.com  She was Joe Drexler's wife.]
If you read Grandpa's diary entries from January 1935 you will see some of the Drexler names including Ottillie.  http://potterclanhistory.blogspot.com/2014/06/diary-of-alfred-e-potter-january-1935.html
