An undated photograph of a group of women dressed as soldiers and probably marching in a parade. The woman at left is carrying a sign that reads, “Gratz Rookies.”
Identified in the photo are (left to right):
Ethel Troxell; Beatrice Klinger; Marie Umholtz; Jennie Troxell; Mary Koppenhaver; Esther Adams; Martha Daniel; Viola Paul; Margaret Hoke.
The parade location is possibly West Market Street, Gratz, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. The auto at left may provide some help in identifying the year the photo was taken.
As for the “Gratz Rookies,” nothing further is known about them s they were not located in any Lykens, Elizabethville, or Tower City newspapers.
