1880s Autograph Album of Anna Keim of Bethehem, Pennsylvania area

1880s autograph album of Anna Keim of the Bethlehem, Pennsylvania area.  Eight of the people who signed pages in the album were surnamed Keim.

The album is approximately 6" x 4", with red velvet padded covers.  It contains 20 pages signed by Anna's relatives and friends.  An alphabetical list of the signers appears at the end of this post.

Two people called themselves Anna's cousin.  One of them used initials I found hard to read, but he or she was possibly J. M. Keim, who signed a page on 25 March 1888 at South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

Another cousin was Alice Keim, who also signed her page on 25 March 1888.

Anna's Aunt Amanda signed a page.
