Uncle George



This is Grandaddy Miller's Mum's older brother George John Bader.  He was born in 1862.  

Uncle Fred



This is Frederick Alyosius Bader.  He is the younger brother of Elizabeth (Grandaddy Miller's mum).

His tie is the most amazing thing ever!

Update:  I just found out that Uncle Fred died just after his 21st birthday from pneumonitis.   Food went down the wrong pipe and he was unable to cough it up.  So sad! (Thanks JM!)

Emma Bader AKA Anna Maria Weireither



Grandaddy Miller's Mom is named Elizabeth (Lizzie).  This is her mum.  On the back it is written Emma Bader, however, her real name is Anna Maria Weireither.  Don't know where the Emma came from!

Unfortunately, as you can tell, this award hasn't lasted very well.  It does list where he was and what awards he received during WWI.
