Frank Rippl Family

Born in Austria in 1882, Frank Rippl  arrived in Menasha in 1891.  Frank had a grocery at the corner of Tayco and Kaukauna and was in the grocery business for 45 years.  His store was extensively highlighted in the Menasha book.

Here, the Rippl family poses in front of their residence at 228 Kaukauna Street.   

Before the age of snapshot photography, obviously some were better than others at holding a pose.
