Scope and content

This is a photo of the Johann Jakob Dyck family seated in an immigration car of the 2nd immigration train. The freight train car has been made more comfortable for the long ride with shelves for beds and storage. Besides Johann Dyck and his wife, there are seven children. Girl with white cap and little fellow in front are not part of the Dyck family, the boy is Jacob Schellenberg, Jr. The two older boys on the left in the back must be Johann Dyck's sons, Cornelius and Johann. The girls on the right must be Justina Dyck's daughters Maria, Helen and Erna. The girl with the white bonnet is unknown. This car was part of the 2nd train to leave Russia in 1923 - the Schoenwiese group.
