Does Anyone Know These Ladies?

On back of picture:
Anna Brutchi-Muller in her eighties. She lived in Zurich. She had a daughter and 2 sisters.

Digging a little deeper:
Anna Mueller was born about 1883 to Jakob Mueller and Anna Elise Huber. She married Tacko Brutschi and the lived in Zurich, Switzerland. Anna Mueller had one sister Maria (about 1885), and two brothers Jakob (1901) and Karl (1903).

My information has been extracted from letters written to Anna Maria Elizabeth Huber Hafen in America by her sister Elise Huber. Any more information would be greatly appreciated.

Anna Gygax

Anna Gygax was born 17 March 1836 and her heritage is from Schwarzhaeusern, Aarwangen District, Bern Canton, Switzerland. She is the daughter of Samuel Gygax (born 1809) and Anna Zurlinden (1814).

Anna married Andreas Huber 22 Mar 1862 according to the Aarwangen, Bern records. He had a devastating fall and suffered greatly both physically and emotionally. Anna had to split her children up and have them live with her relatives to keep them all fed. Eventually she was able to get Anna Maria Elizabeth Huber, Maria Elise Huber and Anna Elise Huber back with her. The families that had Johann Karl Huber and Amelia Huber would not let her have them back as they were doing well where they were.

Johann Andreas Huber and Anna Gygax Family Book

Thurgau, Switzerland is awesome. They have what they call a haushaltungs Register, which is a list of everyone in the family and the personal information. If you can tie in to one of these you have found a gold mine.

Children included in this family are:
Anna Maria Elizabeth Huber,
Anna Elise Huber, Maria Elise Huber, (Johann) Karl Huber, and Amelia Huber.

Anna Maria is my great grandmother.
