APPLEBACH ITEM IN MY DINING ROOM

Several years ago, my Aunt Fran (APPLEBACH) WOODS asked me if I would be interested in an item she purchased at an auction in Applebachsville, PA many years prior to that.  She thought maybe one of Uncle Varge APPLEBACH's boys would be interested in it as they carry the APPLEBACH name.  None were interested, so I was the next choice.

Of course I said "yes" and the item proudly hangs in my dining room.

I am unsure exactly how the "Minnie APPLEBACH" written on the back relates to me, but the connection is there if I ever get further on the research for the other family lines of APPLEBACH.

I went back to the book "Six Afflerbach Emigrants Who Came To Pennsylvania and Their Descendants 1750-1930" by Jane K. THOMPSON. She lists 3 Minnie's but I am not familiar enough with any of those lines to even make a reasonable guess as to which one this belonged to.

In the meantime, does anyone out there have any ideas?
