      Life is short. We need to prepare for our afterlife by being a good person while treating others with respect during our temporary stay in this world. Afterall, only our deeds will be looked into by the God to determine our next journey, whether our ultimate place will be heaven or hell. All things in this life is only a test to our commitment and faiths towards him. All of them may have gone by now. What they experienced then definitely different from what they are experiencing now. All of us will return to our creator. So be nice so that we would be rewarded with the nicest things later in the next life. May Allah open your heart to Islam before it is too late.

      Romans 3:23
      King James Version
      23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
      You need to have godly sorrow for your personal sins that you have done,
      2 Corinthians 7:10
      King James Version
      10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
      You need to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and his finished work on the cross,
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      King James Version
      8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
      9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
      Also,
      John 3:16
      King James Version
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
      Then you need to call upon the Lord and ask him to save you,
      Romans 10:9-10
      King James Version
      9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
      If you do not get saved you will die in your sins,
      Revelation 20:15
      King James Version
      15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

    My grandparents were born in 1899. My grandmother gave birth to my uncle at 18 yrs. old in 1917 during the flu pandemic while my grandfather was fighting in WWI. That blows my mind. I couldn't imagine that. I always picked their brains about history. They had a wealth of knowledge to share and did. I hung on every word. Cars, electricity, running water, indoor bathrooms, going into coal mines in practically street clothes, ect, ect. Very hearty and resilient people. We are truly spoiled. Miss you Bubba and Pap Pap.

They were a prominent family who owned many businesses barber shops specifically but says the husband was a business man of many things. The husband came from Germany in 1895 met his wife same year married and had their first child of 6 in 1896. They were the Lochowicz’s family the husband died in 1918 left the estate to his wife. She lived until 82 and continued running the multiple barber shops through the depression only losing a few of them.

    For the curious, this is the Lochwicz family, of No. 548 Eighth St, Brooklyn, NY.
    The father, seated in the front, was originally from Germany, and he did well, owning several Barber Shops throughout New York.
    Seated in the car is his wife and three of their children, with the fourth girl being unknown (most probably a servant girl).
    And of course the Driver was most likely their permanent, full-time Chauffeur.

      Florian Lochowicz was born in Posen in 1871 and immigrated to America in 1890. His wife Antoinette was a distant cousin of his and she was the daughter of Konstantyn Cornelius Lochowicz and Julia Hectus. Konstantyn had immigrated in 1864, possibly due to the January Uprising in Poland. Florian worked as a barber and became very prominent because J.P. Morgan was patron of Florian's. Florian died unexpectedly in 1918 but was worth $70,000 at the time of his death. His wife continued running the Barbershops into the 1950s and still lived at their Brownstone home in NYC at 548 Eighth Street.

    The car was registered in 1911 in NYC. The name of the owner was the Lochwicz family. The family lived at 548, Eighth Street. The car was an E-M-F 30 touring car. The father called Florian Lochwicz They had 3 kids, and you can see the servant as well.
    The father was born in Prussia, in 1871 and he came to the US in 1890. The wife, Antoinette Lochwicz was his cousin and she was born in NYC. They were most probably cousins. Antoinette`s /the wife`s/ father escaped from Poland from the January Uprising in 1860s and settled down in New York City.
    Florian owned a lot of barber shops in New York, and he died in 1918. His death was published in many papers, leaving 5 children behind. (Not mine)

      Correct. Just to reply to the countless comments why they are not smiling: in Eastern European cultures smiles are preserved for special occasions. In addition, Poland was occupied and undergoing ruthless exploitation, Russification and Germanization. There was mass emigration out of the country for economic and political and being in the US was not as easy as it is now.

They were a prominent family who owned many businesses barber shops specifically but says the husband was a business man of many things. The husband came from Germany in 1895 met his wife same year married and had their first child of 6 in 1896. They were the Lochowicz’s family the husband died in 1918 left the estate to his wife. She lived until 82 and continued running the multiple barber shops through the depression only losing a few of them.
