The old photo I have of Adolph Vavra looks very much like the same man in your posted photo. I do not know what his wife looked like I do not have a photo of her.
The Adolph in my photo was born in Bohemia on 17 February 1852. In 1872 he married Mary Pesek and in that same year came to America. he died in Colfax County,Ne. on 17 March 1902. The information posted is from is obituary
The Obit said he came to Schuyler, Colfax county Nebraska in about 1873.
Wife Marie died 4 October 1927 she was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Pesek. Born 5 September 1851 in Slatina, Czech, date for her marriage to Adolph is the year of 1870 and that they came to America in 1871. living first in or near Terre Haute,Vigo county,Indiana. Then came to Schuyler, Colfax County, Ne. This information is all so from her obituary.
