Description
"Aruscha. Frau Ihmels u. Kinder" ("Arusha. Mrs. Ihmels a[nd] children"). Missionary Guth's 'Haustochter' Maria (?) and Mrs. Ihmels with two little children. A house in the background.
The German term 'Haustochter' used to describe Miss Maria's position is more likely to refer to a girl living with a family to receive instruction in housekeeping than to an actual housemaid. -- Wilhelm Guth (1888-1980), from Zeiskam in the Rhineland Palatinate, studied commerce before joining the Leipzig Mission as a pastor. He served in Gonja (southern Pare) from 1913 to 1917 and from 1927 to 1938. He left a large number of photographs, mostly taken by himself but including some by members of his family or fellow missionaries
