The above photograph was taken in the City of Wheaton Milton Township DuPage County Illinois at St. Michael Roman Catholic Church. I am posting this photo due to the fact that it is a mystery. There is nothing written on the back of this photograph. Casper and Susan (Daleiden) Schlick (my great-grandparents) are in this photo, they are in the second row and just above the baby in the front row. In looking at this photo it would appear to be a baptism. The baby in the front row in a women’s arms is dressed in what appears to be a baptismal or christening gown. I would like to see if anyone out in cyberspace can provide some suggestions on who is in the photo.
