Mary Anne Schlick’s Birthday Party in Burlington, Illinois.

Posted on February 23, 2025 by Schlick Daleiden Families - DuPage and Kane Counties of Illinois
The April 10, 1930 (page 4) Hampshire Register “Burlington” column is a rich source of family history information. The “roving reporter” Mrs. Glen Davis would visit with the households to find out what is going on with their families. This column would now be considered a Twitter or Facebook feed.

Here are some additional photographs from Frank and Mae Schlick’s photo collection from this celebration.

The Maryann Schlick Family 1930. Grandma Schlick birthday party. Casper Schlick is second person from the left. Martin Schlick is fourth from the left. Joseph Schlick, Jr. is second from the right. Grandma is center fourth from the right.
This is a close-up shot of the above photo. The other ladies in this photo is Joseph and Maryann Schlick’s daughters. I am working on identifying each of the ladies.

On the same day the above photo was taken another photo of the grandchildren was taken (see photo below). The photos were taken at the Schlick home at Main and Water Streets in Burlington (Kane County) Illinois. You can see a portion of the posts for the large wrap-around porch to the right of these photos on the north side lot of the house.

My grandmother Mae C. (nee Hodous) Schlick has written on the photo with a blue ink pen on the far left “Mae” and on the far right “Frank“. Frank is my grandfather Frank (Francis) Joseph Schlick, son of Casper and Susan Schick. This birthday party was held two years prior to their wedding. Their wedding took place in 1932 in Warrenville (DuPage County) Illinois at St. Irene’s Catholic Church.
