Mary Vokt is seated in the front row, third from the right. Other individuals are unknown. If you can help identify anyone else in the photo, please contact the Audubon County Coordinator.

Handwriting on the back reads: "Picnic north of Adair - St. John's". Mary Vokt is seated on the ground in front, third from the right. Fred W. Fett is seated in the middle, a bit farther back and to the left of Mary. If you can identify anyone else in the photo please contact the Audubon County Coordinator.

Written in pencil in the margin below the center man in the foreground: H. Gebers. (Probably Henry Gebers, a member of the congregation.) Handwriting on the back reads: "At a picnic of St. John's". The woman on the right side walking toward the camera and carrying a black umbrella may be Mary Vokt. Please contact the Audubon County Coordinator to help with further identification.

Above, another St. John's picnic photograph. Mary Vokt is standing in the background in front of the tree, and Fred W. Fett is standing a short distance to the left of Mary. Mary (Arnold) Fett is seated in the back row next to the left-most tree, wearing a dark hat topped with feathers, and her husband Fred J. Fett is kneeling between his wife and their son, Fred W.
