This early 1900’s antique photo shows a group of men standing outside of “Lemke’s Cafe”. I believe it to be the cafe, tavern, and hotel of proprietor Walter Lemke (1871-1940) of Harsens Island, Michigan.
The Oak Hotel in Presque Isle, Maine was probably the temporary home of my grandparents in the early 1940s. My grandfather, James William Halvangis (1920-1973) was stationed their briefly during WWII.
